Capitol Steps

The Lighter Side of Politics

Wednesday Luncheon
May 26, 2010
12:00 - 2:00 p.m.

Over 25 years ago the Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. Together they have worked in 18 Congressional offices, represent 62 years of collective House and Senate staff experience, and have performed for the last five presidents. No matter who's in the headlines, the Capitol Steps are equal opportunity offenders promising an afternoon full of bipartisan lampooning.

Meet The Capitol Steps at the rapid! PayCard booth (#315) on Wednesday, May 26.
