Trinity Repertory Company begins its 61st season with “POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive” by Selina Fillinger.
This raunchy comedy runs September 5 – 22 and October 10 – 27, 2024 in Trinity Rep’s Dowling Theater. Tickets are available for purchase in person at the Ticket Office on 201 Washington St., online at trinityrep.com/POTUS, or by calling (401) 351-4242.
“There is no more suitable time than this very moment for Selina Fillinger’s biting and hilarious comedy, as it pulls back the curtain on the women working behind the scenes at the White House,” director Curt Columbus said in a release. “It’s a raucous, bawdy ride that will leave you thinking while you laugh.”
“POTUS” runs on its own Sept. 5-22, then in rotating repertory with "Ms. Holmes & Ms. Watson – APT 2B" by Kate Hamill Oct. 10-27. While the plays differ in comedic style and story, both humorous pieces center on women’s voices.
About “POTUS”
Many of us are dreading the 2024 election, regardless of political beliefs. Why not look your fears dead in the eye and laugh at them with “POTUS”? When a presidential PR nightmare evolves into a global catastrophe, it’s up to seven women in the commander-in-chief’s inner circle to do damage control. That is if they don’t drive each other off the rails first through a chaotic cocktail of increasingly absurd antics. Delightfully raunchy and uproariously funny, “POTUS” is a naughty political farce that’ll have you rolling in the aisles! “POTUS” opened on Broadway in 2022 and earned three Tony Award nominations. It has since been produced frequently across the United States.
Trinity Rep’s production will be the play’s Rhode Island premiere.
