Political Comedian to Bring DURST CASE SCENARIO to The Marsh

The Marsh San Francisco announces political comedian Will Durst's new solo show, Durst Case Scenario has been extended due to popular demand. Specializing in political humor for folks who don't like politics, Durst's rollicking feast of outraged and outrageous satire is a comedic exploration of how America is changing in the Trump era.

Durst Case Scenario will return for his extended run 8:00pm Tuesdays, October 3- November 21, 2017 at The Marsh San Francisco, 1062 Valencia Street, San Francisco. For tickets ($20-$35 sliding scale, $55-$100 reserved), the public may visit www.themarsh.org or call The Marsh box office at 415-282-3055 (open 1-4pm, Monday through Friday).

From "covfefe" to "alternative facts," Durst Case Scenario analyzes where America stands post- election, how the country got there, and the possible destinations that may lie ahead. Along with the changes the United States is experiencing, he details "The New Abnormal" - wacky antics, palace intrigues, and pitfalls of polarization threatening our nation and society. With segments such as "Trumpapalooza," the "Bright Sides of Donald J. Trump's Presidency," the "Symptoms of PTSD (Post Trump Stress Disorder)," and "Mike Pence is the Product of Reverse Taxidermy," Durst explains this strange new world and details the anxiety of uncertainty with an unpredictable president.

Acknowledged by peers and press alike as one of the premier political satirists in the country, Will Durst has patched together a comedy quilt of a career. Weaving together columns, books, commentaries, acting, voice-overs, and stand-up, he is guided by his abiding motto, "You can't make stuff up like this." This former radio talk host currently writes a nationally syndicated humor column, and his work has appeared in Esquire, George, the San Francisco Chronicle, National Lampoon, The New York Times and many more. He is a five- time Emmy nominee, has been fired by PBS three times, told jokes in 14 countries, racked up seven nominations for Stand-Up of the Year, and his 800+ television appearances include Letterman, HBO, Showtime, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox News, the BBC and many more. The critically acclaimed Off-Broadway run of his one man show, The All American Sport of Bipartisan Bashing, was turned into a book of the same name by Ulysses Press.
