Political Subversities returns to the People's Improv Theater to lampoon politics, pop culture and more with its newest edition: "Political Subversities: Global Warm THIS!" on June 2nd at 9:30PM. This newest edition will feature almost entirely new material, with a few old favorites.
The First Ladies Project is a well-crafted satire written in the Second City style. It is interesting to note that three of the ensemble graduated the Second City Teen program. This sharpness is evident in moments such as Laura Bush's Stand-up routine and Lucretia Garfield's diphtheria-inspired rap. The ensemble were excellent bringing to light unknown First Ladies as well as fleshing out the lives of the more iconic ladies seated beside our Commander and Chiefs. For all of the hard-hitting satire evident throughout the show, there were some wonderful moments of humanity as well. Edith Wilson comforting her enfeebled husband and Hillary Clinton facing her husband's repeated infidelities were just some of those moments.
Manhattan: The First Ladies Project is an original show that uses a medley of real letters, historical accounts, and imagined circumstances to examine the curious, hilarious, and remarkable position of the First Lady. Written and performed by five funny young women, this is a tale that examines our nation's highest unpaid, unelected career.
