Rock 'N Ridicule Brings DC Humor to LA! See This Hilarious Political Cabaret! PODCAST!
Had it up to here with Washington? Wondering where your bailout package is? Donʼt write to Congress! Ridicule them!
Skipping from Washington DC to LA, (from the right to the left coast) is this amazingly funny and satirical political cabaret that will rock your world: ROCK 'N' RIDICULE!
Rock 'N Ridicule has been playing at the Acme Comedy Theatre since 3/14 and it features an incredibly multi-talented cast and rock band that takes aim at everything from the ridiculous to the sublime. This comedic coup takes bi-partisan blasts at presidents and politicians from Obama and W to Sarah Palin and, for some local fl avor, Governor Schwarzenegger. Meaning this is truly a bi-partisan, bi-coast comedic jab with all taking it on the chin in this equal opportunity musical comedy.
This original cabaret/musical reaches out to both sides of the political spectrum and even those who choose not to participate! Everyone should see this amazing theatrical event.
