Dead Presidents Club


The Dead Presidents Club was a comedic play that I went to for my common experience. In the play past presidents, Richard Nixon, Lyndon B. Johnson, Calvin Coolidge, and Harry Truman are detained in barracks but the detainers are scrutinizing saints who are supposed to determine the presidents' fate. The presidents were placed in a purgatory where you're supposed to better yourself but the presidents were criticizing each other and their faults. In the play God was a black woman and each president had to plead their case to her of why they should be released. The God sends each of them back as a different species and they come back and are supposed to have learned. This play was an unusual comedy.
