DICK FOR THE HOLIDAYS

. . . . . . .
Most holiday festivities offer patrons mistletoe, re-gifted presents and soggy fruitcake, but only one promises to bring the Dick—Cheney, that is. Billionaires For Bush presents a heartwarming parody of our country’s darling vice president when its performance group, The Billionaire Follies, takes on Bush’s buddy in Dick Cheney’s Holiday Spectacular 2006! The show follows a shopper on Christmas Eve as she struggles to find last-minute gifts and is knocked out during a cheery holiday shopping fight. In her unconscious state, the shopper enters the world of Cheney and his holiday celebrations. Performers sing some of Cheney’s favorite tunes—including “We Three Kings of Petroleum Are” and “Toys for the World (Are Made by Kids)”—and dance to choreography by DJ McDonald, also known as “Seamus Lee Rich.” Melody Bates and David Bennett lead the show’s writing team, and their delightfully biting political satire will surely spread holiday cheer.
