Barack Obama's election changed history. 44 is a satirical look at the rise and presidency of Barack Obama, as well as the eccentric political characters he met along the way. It is the story of Obama you won't read about in history books...because history books are now banned in most states. But also, because 44 is the story of Obama as Joe Biden kinda sorta remembers it...

The award-winning musical satire is written, composed, and directed by Eli Bauman ("NBC's Maya & Marty") who is a former Obama campaign staffer.

44 is produced in association with Anthony “Brew” Brewster, Steve McKeever (Hidden Beach Recordings), Conrad Bauer, and Shanice & Kerry Gordy. 

The music director is Anthony “Brew” Brewster with choreography by Miss James Alsop. General Management is DR Theatrical Management.

Prior to the limited New York engagement, 44 – THE MUSICAL will be returning to Chicago for a second time this August following an acclaimed run in 2024. It will play Chicago’s Studebaker Theater from August 23 to September 21, before it opens in New York on October 14.
