The Royal Underground Theatre Company presents POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive, Selina Fillinger’s breakneck political farce about power, damage control, survival, and the women forced to clean up the mess.

A derogatory comment, a summit gone awry, an anal abscess—it’s a bad day at the White House. When the President unwittingly spins a PR nightmare into a global crisis, it inevitably falls on the seven women he relies on most to clean up the mess. Take a raucous romp through the halls of the West Wing in a riotous and irreverent farce about the men who hold the power vs. the women who get the job done. It's sharp, chaotic, profane, and built for a room full of people who know exactly how ridiculous leadership can become when competence is left to everyone except the person officially in charge.

"A laugh-out-loud riot that will surprise you at every turn."

— Broadway World 

"POTUS is a whiz bang of a play!”

— Entertainment Weekly
