About the Show

Erica Vlahinos' raunchy comedy-cabaret explores the history of sexploits at the White House.

'Power Over POTUS' is a gossip-fueled political comedy about the women who did 69 in the Situation Room, used whips in the West Wing, had romps in the Rose Garden, and never acted First Ladylike. A certain former intern receives an invitation to get back in action 20 years after getting rug burn in the Oval Office. As she ponders pounding an orange POTUS, she seeks guidance from the spirits of the women who stood (and laid) in her shoes. Note: For mature audiences only. $20 food and beverage minimum per person.

Clever, Raunchy, Quirky, Relevant, Intelligent

See it if Playful historical satire with feminist and political themes. Fun singing and acting with an energetic live band. Witty pop song parodies.

Don't see it if You want to avoid explicit sexual material. You wouldn't enjoy the lampooning of powerful men and the women who pursue them.

Clever, Entertaining, Funny, Great singing, Raunchy

See it if you would enjoy a one-woman powerhouse singing in the voices of various first ladies/mistresses with wit and charm. Cabaret performance.

Don't see it if you are easily offended by sexual content; you don't enjoy "dinner theater" type of venue; you are not into one woman shows.

Ambitious, Clever, Indulgent, Great writing, Quirky

See it if you love musical revues of political scandals. This is the star/writer/director's contribution to all the political theater going on in NYC.

Don't see it if you've seen too many politically relevant plays this year and you get frustrated when the music drowns out the words.

Entertaining, Funny, Intelligent, Great performance

See it if Fun, funny one-hander, with a first-rate writer/performer (with backup trio) strutting her smart, sexy stuff.

Don't see it if Like Trump? Stay home. Sex talk bothers you? It ain't Mary Poppins. But you'll be missing some good insights and great laughs.

Critic Reviews (2)

"A laugh riot...Vlahinos has infused humor in history to lampoon one of the most infamous news cycles in our history...Using parodies of pop hits through the ages, the musical not only showcases Vlahinos' effortless performance but her stellar writing. Some of the songs strike stronger than others, but on the whole, Vlahinos has found a way to an include a spectrum of styles that remain cohesive to her storytelling."

"The lively, raucous and ribald theatre piece, created and performed by the versatile Erica Vlahinos, who inhabits all of these lively ladies, is an entertaining romp through sexual history...What is great fun is the choice of the music. Each of the women is well-defined by the song selections...Vlahinos is a confident and clever actress, singer and lyricist...If the show has some flaws, they are clearly outranked by the virtues to be found in the vices of our presidents."
