Capitol Fools at North Shore Center for the Performing Arts

"The Capitol Fools hold up a mirror to our crazy political culture, providing hilarious song parodies and foolish reflections that continue to inspire belly-laughter. Audiences will continue to see cast members from past seasons of the Capitol Steps performing all the beloved bits, the mind-boggling backward talking spoonerisms, break-neck costume changes, over-the-top impressions, and all-new song parodies reflecting the day’s news."

To attend you will need to buy your own ticket. Some of us have already purchased our tickets and our seats are in the balcony, numbers EE30 - EE32 and FF31 - FF34.
