Barack Stars - Performance February 13, 2010

By THE SECOND CITY,Chicago's legendary comedy theatreAppropriate for ages 16 and up. Chicago produced a president, a string of corrupt governors, and theyre vying for the Olympics in 2016; so who better to make fun of all of it than The Second City celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. In Barack Stars, Chicagos favorite son is given his satiric due, with an economy on the ropes and maybe just a touch of swine flu for good measure. Perfecting the art of comedy revue with sketches, songs and a little improvisation, The Second City storms the Capital City to tackle partisanship, the politics of race, a terrifyingly tiny Rahm Emanuel, and a host of other headline-grabbing personalities.Prices:Subscribers $40 | General Public $45
