Political Idol, musical revue at the Triad Theatre
Freedom Toast presents Political Idol, conceived by Marc Emory, opening at the Triad Theatre on 6 Nov 2007, following previews from 30 Oct and running through to 18 Dec 2007.
Political Idol: Armed with irreverence, wit, and spot-on impressions of Hillary, Obama, Giuliani, and George W., a quartet of seasoned entertainers turn familiar songs into show-stopping political parodies.
The show features more than a dozen lyrically altered songs, from "Who�ll Stop McCain" (Who�ll Stop the Rain) to "Giuliani," the former mayor�s salute to both himself and the Dean Martin standard, "That�s Amore." Other stand-outs include "We�re Bringin' Ronnie Back� (Sexy Back) and "What�s Bill Got to Do With It," Hillary�s version of the Tina Turner classic.
Directed by Julie Blanciak, Political Idol features Lara Buck, Enga Davis, Joseph DiSalle and Robert Yarnall.
