This talk will be moderated by humor writer Barry Dougherty, author of six books including the standup comedy book: How To Do It Standing Up and The Friars Club Encyclopedia of Jokes. While writing his previous New York Times bestselling memoir, Playing with Myself, Randy saw an America in crisis, knew what the country needed and here it is – Low-Hanging Fruit – a book filled with sparkling whines, a few flutes of champagne problems and a Birkin bag of the most pressing issues facing the US.
Randy Rainbow is a four-time Emmy-nominated comedian, actor, singer, writer, and satirist best known for his popular series of musical parodies and political spoofs, which have garnered him international acclaim. Randy tours the U.S. to sold-out audiences, and his viral comedy videos receive millions of views across all social media and digital platforms. He resides in New York City.

Adelphi University Performing Arts Center

The Capitol Fools hold up a mirror to our crazy political culture, providing hilarious song parodies and foolish reflections that inspire belly-laughter as both sides of the aisle get skewered.
Cast members from past seasons of the Capitol Steps perform all the beloved bits, the mind-boggling backward talking spoonerisms, break-neck costume changes, over-the-top impressions, and song parodies reflecting the day’s news.
What happens when Washington, D.C.’s premiere, political satire group – The Capitol Steps – call it quits after nearly 40 years? Most folks would agree that it was a great run, and the story would end there.
But an intrepid group of cast members and a co-writer would not go quietly into that good night. This band of fools reflected on a world without musical, political satire, and didn’t like what they saw. And just like that The Capitol Fools were born.
While foolish enough to embark on this new journey, they were smart enough to not reinvent the wheel. Fast-paced, laugh out loud show…check. Equal opportunity offenders…check. Skewering both sides of the aisle…check. If a “Steps-style show” is wrong, they don’t want to be right. 

The spirit, irreverence and D.N.A. of The Capitol Steps lives on with The Capitol Fools!
