From the director of the recent hit Between Barack and a Hard Place comes another election-season winner, Campaign Supernova!, performed by Second City. Where Barack focused squarely on Obama and Clinton, Supernova is broader, asking how much change we can reasonably expect from our political leaders. The show is fast-paced and funny throughout, with a mix of timely political swipes, quick blackouts, grounded emotional scenes, and a few instant-classic moments.
