The Capitol Steps Return to Bring Down the House (and Senate)

Saturday, October 6 at 8 pm, MainStage

Just in time for election season, Washington, DC’s funniest political satirists return to bring down the house (and Senate) with their unique blend of music and political comedy. Founded by Congressional staffers, the Capitol Steps is currently celebrating its 30th year of existence and is the only place in America where you’ll find two Presidential candidates onstage singing show tunes. Not for the faint of heart nor those considering a run for office, the group has performed for five US presidents and can be heard four times a year during NPR’s Politics Takes a Holiday radio specials.
