In Trumpilton: An American Musical Parody, the rise of Donald J. Trump as president is comically traced through the eyes of the singing and dancing Fred Trump, Vladimir Putin, Hillary Clinton, Robert Mueller, Melania Trump, Mike Pence, Stormy Daniels, Bernie Sanders, the Trump kids, and a slew of others, notorious and notable. Tracking Trump’s history, tweet by tweet, this irreverent romp features satirical scenes and musical numbers.

Following the conception and development in Vermont of the award-winning Hadestown, another show Vermont seeded and grown, Trumpilton: An American Musical Parody has come to New York City. Building on the tradition of Spamilton and featuring a local and international cast, this hilarious and irreverent romp is a one-of-a-kind experience in a limited engagement. Don’t miss it.
“Everybody’s doing a one-man show,“ writes Janelle Faignant, correspondent for The Rutland Herald, “and it’s all four actors together, so it’s like a four-ring circus.”
“I get booed and cheered at the same time,” says stand-up comic, Michael Kingsbury, who plays Trump. “If you’re not a Trumpster, you’ll love it so much you’ll vote him in again…so we can write the sequel.”
