Annoyance Productions presents the premiere of this new comedy parodying the life and career of Chicago's current mayor, Rahm Emanuel. Playwright Marc Warzecha (Oprah! A Comedy) and political writer Andy Cobb present all sides of Emanuel: politician, family man, ballet dancer, rapper ... and possibly the most manipulative jerk the Third Coast has ever seen. Watch as the shy, talentless child grows into the power-hungry politician and ascends the power ladder to Windy City mayor. Through flashbacks, PowerPoint and song, this hilarious and original piece will speak to every Chicagoan.

* Additional fees apply.

It was better than I thought it would be. At the beginning of the show, it was a little difficult to hear the lyrics, but after a while, the lyrics were quite witty and funny. I thought they overdid the wolf scene a little. Overall, it was a great little "love letter" to Rahm.

I loved the show and even though the language was at times a little on the raunchy side, it was true to the nature of the person named in the title of the show so it was understandable that it was included.

The actors/actresses were terrific and the show had many funny moments. A great way to start an evening and have dinner out afterwards.
