Persons of Interest May 10, 2007

Join in to enjoy an evening of original songs and sketches written by the team of Nicholas Zill and Howard Bennett, who have for many years contributed "zingers" and "toe-tapping critiques" to the annual benefit shows of Hexagon (Potomac Stages). The show features a line-up of suspicious characters and familiar Washington figures, all of whom are considered 'Persons of Interest" because "someone in authority thinks they may know the truth." With piano and clarinet accompaniment, a cast of seven actor-singers depicts figures like Donald Rumsfeld ruing that, "Stuff Happens," Jack Abramoff reminiscing about "The Lobbyist I Once Was" and a trio of female policy wonks explaining why, "Hillary Clinton Is Our Candidate."
