44—The Musical

Need a little break from the daily drama of current White House? Venture back to a simpler time through this R&B–flavored musical satire of the rise and reign of Barack Obama, as imagined by writer-composer-director Eli Bauman (who was once an Obama campaign staffer). The show has already been a hit with audiences and critics in Los Angeles and Chicago, and now arrives in New York for a limited run. The cast is headlined by T.J. Wilkins and Shanice as the President and First Lady and Chad Doreck as Joltin' Joe Biden.
