WHAT'S THE DEAL?
”POTUS takes a raucous romp through the White House in an irreverent farce about the men who hold power vs. the women who get the job done.” — Splash Magazine
“If you’ve ever wondered how much of a farce working in the executive branch could be — well, this is the evening for you. Located somewhere on the satirical dial between “9 to 5” and “Veep,” “POTUS” is a potty-mouthed sendup of life in the fastest lane, the one that ends at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.” - The Washington Post
“I am woman, hear me roar — with laughter, at “POTUS: or, Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive,” playwright Selina Fillinger’s delicious feminist farce about the all-female staff that keeps the country out of war and other sticky situations while babysitting the dullard who holds the highest office in our beleaguered land.” —Variety
WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?
POTUS, Or Behind Every Great Dumbass are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive, is a searingly funny Broadway hit that follows how seven women of dramatically different backgrounds work to minimize the damage done by male arrogance and political posturing. An endearing and hilarious homage to the women who keep things running behind the scenes.
***Content Warning: Much of the humor in POTUS is adults-only or, at least, only for those who are prepared for strong language and the mention of sexual acts. It also should be noted that POTUS is entirely divorced from real-life goings-on in today’s White House, or from making observations about the current occupants - the titular dumbass could belong to either party.***
