POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great

Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying

to Keep Him Alive

by Selina Fillinger

February 20 - March 9, 2025

The three-time Tony Award-nominated play, "POTUS: Or Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Them Alive," is an all-female, theatrical farce. The story is this: When the current POTUS (President of the United States) unwittingly spins a PR nightmare into a global crisis, seven brilliant and beleaguered women he relies on must risk life, liberty, and the pursuit of sanity to keep the commander-in-chief out of trouble. Directed by BETHE ENSEY, with Scenic Design by Gary Weatherly, this group of ladies will deliver quick-witted dialogue and move the plot at breakneck speed. Hang onto your chairs, Birmingham!!
CONTENT WARNING: Explicit language is used during the show.
