Gross National Product (GNP) is noted to be the “Capitol’s satirical gang. Always funny” by The Washington Post. Since 1980 Gross National Product have been turning “headlines into punchlines” with sketches, musical parodies, skitcoms, and audience-inspired improvs centered on national politics. World famously funny, GNP has the critics on a rave from the New York Times to The London Observer to Life magazine and The Wall Street Journal. As fast with impressions as with improvs, GNP is a “first-rate comedy feast”- The Wall Street Journal. GNP appears nationally and internationally on stage, in newsprint, and on television and radio. They have starred in five of their own national comedy specials for PBS stations nationwide and are a regular at the Smithsonian Institution’s Resident Art series. Frommer’s magazine has noted that GNP is one of Washington’s “comic monuments.” Discovery Channel recently had members appear in “Washington Scandals.”

Over the years, the titles to the shows have changed as the political seasons change from “Man Without a Contra 1989” to “A Newt World Order in 1995” to “All the President’s Women 1998” to now “Son of a Bush.” The Washington Times calls them the “fastest guns in town.”

Gross National Product Comedy Revue

Whether its two parties, (DNC and RNC of course) or just one big party, it doesn’t really matter. For years GNP has been in the business of “turning today’s headlines into tonight’s belly laughs” –Washington Post. Since 1980 GNP has lampooning snoops, creeps, the Congress, Prez & Veer as GNP’s fast-paced take on current events and social satire is guaranteed to have you and your colleagues laughing on both sides of the aisle. GNP is completely bi-partisan, customized, and high-octane entertainment for groups of all shapes and sizes. GNP delivers “sharp impersonations” says The Los Angeles Times, “the city’s most popular company of satirists who have been a favorite among those inside and outside the beltway”. GNP has been seen both nationally and internationally on news and has turned evenings into a political laugh-slide. Even President Clinton got into the act: “You guys are great . . . amazing.” GNP will work with your company to customize the event for a truly memorable evening . . . Let’s do some funny business!
