Capitol Steps Comedy Show

 

 

Twenty-five years ago, the Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. To their credit, they have recorded 27 albums, including their latest, Springtime For Liberals, have been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC, and PBS, can be heard 4 times a year on National Public Radio during their Politics Takes a Holiday radio specials, and have even had the opportunity to perform for the last 5 Presidents (6, if you include Hillary)!

Most cast members have worked on Capitol Hill; some for Democrats, some for Republicans, and others for politicians who firmly straddle the fence. No matter who holds office, there is never a shortage of material. Says Elaina Newport, "Typically the Republicans goof up, and the Democrats party. Then the Democrats goof up and the Republicans party. That's what we call the two-party system."

Want to have a “good laugh” over current political issues? Here is your chance! The Capitol Step’s material is constantly being updated; Following “hot-button” political issues like the Democrats' current infatuation with Barack Obama in "A Leader Like Barack" (set to "The Leader of the Pack"), or the latest opinions from Ann Coulter ("Loonies of the Right"). No matter who's in the headlines, the Capitol Steps are equal opportunity offenders.
