The Stockton Honors College took a day trip to Philadelphia early in the 2016 school year to see a political satire. We loaded the bus at an ungodly hour for a weekend morning, and we set off.
Upon arriving at the theater, we noticed a two main things: the interior design was quaint enough to have been put together by my grandparents, and we were the only attendants under the age of 65 by the looks of the audience. By these observations, we initially concluded that this time would be interesting at the least.
Despite our preconceived notions, the political satire was enjoyable for our age group as well as the older age group. The actors and actresses showcased the possibilities of each candidate taking the presidential election, and they incorporated impersonations of modern public figures. They made a point to engage the audience and used dry humor and sarcasm to keep us interested. Traveling to Philadelphia was a small price to pay for a good quality political satire.
