Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 56 Upside Down (Audio)

Feb 08, 2018
Produced by Tom Roe.
Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 56 Upside Down. This week, everything is turned topsy turvy into a land of stranger things. Are you afraid to step into the upside down? This week, songs and skits from Dustin, Mike, Lucas, Eleven, and Mr. Clarke from "Stranger Things;" Diana Ross ("Upside Down"); Young Thug ("Memo"); Golden Earring ("Twilight Zone"). Clips and excerpts from Sarah Sanders; Shepard Smith; Chris Hayes; Barbara Comstock; Lawrence O'Donnell; Rachel Maddow; Chuck Todd; Chris Matthews; Evan McMullin; Sean Hannity; Jimmy Kimmel; Stephen Colbert; Nigel Tufnel from "This is Spinal Tap;" John Berman; Trey Gowdy; Trevor Noah; Keith Nelson from the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus; Jordan Klepper from "The Opposition With;" Michael Che and Colin Jost from "Saturday Night Live;" and Jeff Flake. "Donald Drumpf Theatre" is an original radio theatre show, with most sounds culled from the previous week, about a fictional, theatrical presidency. Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks. Currently, the network has ordered another 15 episodes, but there are threats of cancellation. Anyone who would like to contribute to the show, should contact info@wgxc.org.
