Rock the Presidents
Rock the Presidents is a high octane, multi-media-filled musical revue spanning 223 years of the Ameri-can presidency – from George Washington to Barack Obama. The 44 men who rose to the highest office in the land are brought to life through all-new rock, pop and folk music. Audiences young and old alike will learn something new about our Presidents, while per-haps seeing something of themselves reflected in the stories on stage.
With songs like “The Sons of Washington,” a driving rock anthem honoring Washington’s revolutionary idea of peacefully giving up power, and the jazz-inspired “Who In the World is Millard Fillmore?” celebrating some of the lesser-known Commanders in Chief, Rock the Presidents is sure to entertain and inform audiences of all ages.
This engagement is supported by the Arts Midwest Touring Fund, a program of Arts Midwest, and is generously supported by the National Endowment of the Arts with additional contributions from the Minnesota State Arts Board.
