The Imagination Liberation Front (ILF) presents the traveling
production of Hieronymous BANG's incendiary play "I'm Gonna Kill the
President!" A Federal Offense. The ILF is on the run, striking from
underground, and more dangerous than ever. The play arrives in Los
Angeles May 20 and runs through June 25.
A guerilla comedy that features a crank-call to the White House,
President! scandalized last summer's Republican Convention in New
York. Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Fox News, and countless
conservative bloggers railed against the production even as crowds
piled in. The ILF's fun-loving radicals had to skip town fast—trouble
from the Secret Service, the FBI, Homeland Security, and death
threats.
The play blends the styles of the Yippies, the Muppets and Dario Fo to
tell the story of a confused college student who falls for a radical
prankster with a plan to overthrow the government.
The production runs at various secret locations around Los Angeles
from May 20 to June 25. America's culture of fear and persecution of
liberty have necessitated certain security precautions. All
performances require audience to assemble at a secret meeting place.
Show times vary; tickets are $12-$15. For reservations and
instructions, call 888.475.6181. AUDIENCE MUST ARRIVE AT THE MEETING
PLACE AT LEAST 30 MINUTES IN ADVANCE OR RISK MISSING THE SHOW
ENTIRELY—LATECOMERS WILL NOT BE SHOWN TO THE THEATER.

"It has been over 24 hours since I left the theater and my nerves
still haven't settled down. Now that's revolutionary." –Helen Shaw,
New York Sun
"The sign of the times isn't the play itself, uproarious as it is.
It's the fact that the one might have to worry about having seen it."
–Michelle Goldberg, Salon.com
"The highly inventive comedy mixes soapbox speechifying, slapstick,
cheesy sight gags and equal-opportunity lampooning (paranoid
conservatives and lame lefties are both shellacked) into a smart and
relevant commentary." –David Cote, TimeOut NY
"This is an example of the lunatic left wing that makes mainstream
leftists like me look bad." –Alan Colmes, Fox News Radio
