September 10 – 25, 2011

The revolution will be edited for television.

In a bunker somewhere under Washington D.C., a bomb is being constructed. A hostage is bound. A reporter is ushered in. Martyrs will be made by force and lives will be advanced by obsession.

by Andy Bayiates, Sean Benjamin, Genevra Gallo-Bayiates, et al.
Directed by Carin Bratlie
June 29 – July 14 and November 6, 2012
Performing at Calvary Lutheran Church Fellowship Hall

White House. Oval Office. Sequined jacket.

A chronological, biographical survey of each of the 44 men who have held one of the most revered and regrettable positions of power on earth. Their miracles and misfires are celebrated by a fistful of actors while moving through comedic and tragic moments, revelations, reconstructions, and mini-musicals. Where has the presidency gone since its fall from paradise? Where will it continue on to? And how much responsibility do we-the people-hold? Originally created by the Neo-Futurists in Chicago, 44 Plays for 44 Presidents is a love song to every Mad Tom, Tricky Dick, and William Henry Harri-who. [click for more information...]
