Making fun of people can be fun, especially when almost the entire nation makes fun of the same person. I am referring to George W. Bush. After 8 years of being president, it seems like he has gotten the most shit from the country. He has books written about him, websites, and a movie, and none of them have particularly anything nice to say about him.
And now the stupidness (haha) of W. Bush have reached Broadway. George W. Bush was not good enough to play himself for the production, so instead Will Ferrell will take the lead. "You're Welcome America. A Final Night with George W Bush" is a "show picks up after the 43rd President has lifted off from the White House lawn. Director Adam McKay ("Step Brothers") and Ferrell fashion that into a brilliant entrance for Dubya, who recalls his life at Yale, Crawford, Tex., and in the Oval Office." I would love to see this play and laugh along as Ferrell and the rest of the cast totally humiliate Bush.
"The stage is mostly bare, with just a few props and video screens where images of places, faces and ruder body parts help set the scene. If some sequences run out of steam, another laugh is looming just around the bend." Yes at some point in the play you will get the opportunity to see Bush's penis (of course it's not truly his) which has caused some not so happy theatergoers to leave before the play is over.
I have loved Will Ferrell in pretty much every film he has been in, from "Elf" to "Old School".
"Ferrell has Dubya down pat - the stance, butt head chuckle, constant squint and tumbleweed twang, which sparks one of the shows best jokes."
I really want to see this play. Anything making fun of "Dubya" has to be great.
