Lyric Theatre In Downtown Stuart

 

 

The Capitol Steps fully admit that they have an odd way of looking at the news.  When they hear of the latest political scandal, they don’t think about whether it’s good or bad for the country.  Their two questions are: 1) Is it funny? and 2) What rhymes with it?

The Steps were founded in 1981, when three staffers for former Senator Charles Percy pulled together a comedic revue for entertainment at a Christmas party.  Like most things in Congress, they didn’t know when to stop.

Over a quarter of a century later, the Capitol Steps continue to deliver their bitingly satirical song parodies to a nationwide audience that can’t get enough.  They’ve been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC and PBS television, and can be heard four times a year on National Public Radio with their “Politics Takes a Holiday” specials.  Their latest and 29th CD is “Obama Mia.” 

The Steps’ sidesplitting comedy is always fresh (i.e., both topical and irreverent).  Every show is fresh, as well:  Thanks to our elected officials, new material is added constantly!  The Steps are an annual visitor to the Lyric, and a sure sell-out every year.  Get your tickets now, and find out why!
