My face still hurts from laughing!
POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive is the hilarious and outrageous farce that just got its Chicago premiere at Steppenwolf Theatre. The show starts off with a bang and continues to skyrocket until the very last moment.
The show follows seven women behind-the-scenes when a White House PR nightmare spirals into complete chaos. POTUS stars ensemble members Celeste M. Cooper, Sandra Marquez, Caroline Neff and Karen Rodriguez with Karen Aldridge, Chloe Baldwin and Meighan Gerachis. The entire cast is phenomenal.

The show examines relationships, sex, politics & careers all through the experiences with seven women who all have a connection with the President. This show is of course, this is a look at the life at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, but we've all worked for a boss, who clearly doesn't know what every person on the team exactly does or the unsung heroes who save the day. Oftentimes, things happen at the top level, without realising the impact and trickle down effect that has on everyone on the team.
You'll will laugh from the moment the show starts go through a rollercoaster of emotions as we witness how one person means something completely different to each person on that stage.
