Lady and the Trump
Brave New Workshop Comedy Theatre
Twin Cities Pioneer Press- Somewhat Recommended
"...“Lady and the Trump,” which spends most of its time poking fun at the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees for president, does succeed at being topical and providing of-the-moment humor most of the time. But the humor is leavened by the certitude — and more than a hint of outrage — that the current schism in American political discourse is no laughing matter."

"...Lady and the Trump offers a lot of funny business, but be forewarned that some of the material is definitely for adults. With that disclaimer, the show provides a welcome chance to laugh at the craziness that has taken hold of our national elections, proving the inherent value of a good sense of humor. The show is unlikely to change anyone's mind about their own political leanings, but the wackiness of the contenders on stage at Brave New Workshop may give us some perspective to help us endure the real thing."

"...Lady and the Trump is the latest comedy show from Brave New Workshop (BNW) and opened last week. BNW is well-known for its social and political humors based on certain themes. Like the Saturday Night Live television show, BNW is probably at its best when it weaves together comedy skits into a show that focuses on American Politics. As the title indicates, the current show is about the 2016 Presidential election. Given the rich fodder this year’s Presidential election has wrought, I expected and gleefully found an outstanding comedy show. Director Caleb McEwen and the writers/performers hilariously lampoons both Trump and Clinton."
