The Spin

What:
Care about our republic? Then come see The Spin, an improvised show based entirely on a current political news story chosen by you, the citizen audience. While we all love our late-night talk show hosts, they get time to prepare their eviscerations of political foolishness, arrogance, and stupidity . But the trained and politically savvy improvisers of The Spin don't have the luxury of time or cue cards. So like our political leaders, we'll make it up as we go along. Like the McLaughlin Group but without the old cranky dude, The Spin takes the news of the day and runs it through the spin cycle, improvising scenes ripped from the headlines. If you think George Stephanopoulos is dreamy, but not funny enough, you'll love The Spin.
