Belasco Theatre (Broadway)
111 West 44th St. New York, NY
In a time like no other in American history, and with a sense of urgency like never-before, Michael Moore comes to Broadway for the first time in an exhilarating, subversive one-man show guaranteed to take audiences on a ride through the United States of Insanity, explaining once and for all how the f*** we got here, and where best to dine before crossing with the Von Trapp family over the Canadian border.
Performed live each night just blocks from Trump Tower, The Terms of My Surrender will, like Moore's films, feature the wry, satirical humor of one of America's iconic political observers and all-around-shit-disturbers, a fearless Midwesterner not interested in taking any prisoners. Audiences are in for one surprise after another.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR The Terms of My Surrender
Theater Review: Blocks From Trump Tower, Michael Moore Stands Up and Barks
6 / 10
First of all, because it's almost entirely unsurprising. In an interview with Time Out, Moore promises that 'for 87 minutes, you're going to experience something you're not expecting' (the show runs 110 minutes, by the way), but my feelings upon leaving the Belasco Theatre can best be summed up with a long sigh. If I had had to make a guess as to what a Michael Moore Broadway show would feel like, this would have been pretty much it. The Terms of My Surrender feels like a live version of my Facebook feed: a few good stories and a boatload of preaching to the choir (add requisite helpings of self-congratulation and liberal-on-liberal shaming for full effect).
Broadway Review: Michael Moore’s ‘The Terms of My Surrender’
7 / 10
The personal anecdotes are interesting, but that librarian story illustrates the main message of this rally - that 'one person out of nowhere can make a revolution.' 'You do make a difference,' Moore insists, urging everyone in his audience to run for local office and work up to higher office. 'I refuse to live in Trump's America!' he swears, bringing the event the closest to a political rally. 'Trump goes!' (wild applause) 'Pence goes! (more thunder).

Moore was astounding in this performance; it was mostly about his life and what he believes in. I don't find many comedians funny, but I surrendered to Moore's clever monologue, joined by uproarious laughter from the audience throughout the show. His type of humor is sophisticated and intellectual; he presented his show as a 12-step program for liberals. I'm neither a liberal nor an alcoholic, so going through a 12-step recovery session was a novel experience. One of the traditional steps in such programs involve turning one's problems over to God. Moore confessed, My higher power is Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
