CAPITOL STEPS 2016 Tour Coming to Waterbury

In perfect timing with the 2016 Presidential Race, Washington DC's infamously funny comedy troupe The Capitol Steps brings an all-new stage show based on their current album "Mock the Vote" to the Palace Theater on Thursday, April 7, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets for the politically charged comedy extravaganza go on sale Thursday, December 31, at 10 a.m. and can be purchased online at www.palacetheaterct.org, by phone at 203-346-2000, or in person at the Box Office, 100 East Main St. in Waterbury. Seats range in price from $30 to $48.

Beginning in 1981 as a group of Senate Staffers, The Capitol Steps have been a Washington, DC institution for over 30 years with appearances on "The Today Show," "Nightline," "CBS Evening News" and numerous specials for National Public Radio. Each of the troupe's performances feature a unique blend of musical and political comedy, as well as tasteful lampooning, that is guaranteed to leave both sides of the political spectrum laughing out loud.

Known as the group that puts the "mock" in "democracy," the comedy troupe's show is constantly changing, strenuously bi-partisan, and includes songs about everything in the news, including "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Crimea," "Ain't No Pipeline, Now It's Gone," and "The iMpossible iWatch." For anyone who has ever wanted to see Barack Obama sing a show tune, Nancy Pelosi sing a rock song, and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie do a classical ballet, this show is just for them!
