The Eli and Edythe Broad Stage in Santa Monica presents the most preeminent monologist in the American theater, Mike Daisey, who has been hailed as “the master storyteller” and“one of the finest solo performers of his generation” byThe New York Times, promoters announced recently.In The Trump Card, Daisey takes on the reigning world heavyweight of self-mythologizing, the short-fingered vulgarian who captured a nation’s heart through bullying,charm, one-syllable explosions, and occasion-ally telling the brutal truth: Donald J. Trump. Daisey tells Trump’s story from his earliest days, tracking him as he makes himself into anew American archetype – the very first rich man famous exclusively for being rich. Instead of dismissing Trump as a simple con artist and huckster, Daisey breaks down what makesTrump tick – and in doing so illuminates the state of our American Dream and how we’ve sold it out. Daisey will bring his provocative style toThe Trump Cardat The Broad Stage onThursday, September 29 at 7:30 p.m. The show is created and performed by Daisey and directed by Isaac Butler. Tickets, starting at $32, are available online at the broadstage.com and by calling 310.434.3200.
