POTUS was excellent! With Rachel Dratch, I was prepared for a good side aching laugh and she didn't disappoint. With Vanessa Williams, I was prepared for snarky and highly sarcastic lines, and she didn't disappoint. With Suzy Nakamura, I was prepared for the best delivery of dry humor and fall down hilariousness, and she didn't disappoint. This was a brilliant cast! I would describe the play as hilariously brilliant! I could not stop laughing. Great job!
