Waiting for Obama

About
Waiting for Obama is the story of a Colorado family that is convinced the President is coming for their guns … and they may be right. The play, written by longtime Denver arts journalist John Moore was an official selection to the 2016 New York International Fringe Festival.

The work was developed in Denver, CO at the Buntport Theatre with a series of closed and open rehearsals before receiving its premiere at the New York International Fringe Festival.

July 28 – August 7, 2016 (Buntport Theatre, Denver, CO)
August 1, 2016 (Bas Bleu, Ft. Collins, CO)
August 12 – August 15, 2016 (14th St Y / New York International Fringe Festival, NYC, NY)

I don’t have guns because the Second Amendment says I can have guns. I have guns becuase the guy next to me has guns.  – Waiting for Obama

Team
The cast included Chris Kendall, Luke Sorge, Leslie O’Carroll, Laurence Curry, Jessica Robblee, Amelia Corrada and Brett Aune.
