Yes I Can! The Michelle Obama Musical
Meridian Centre Pointe ^ | 10/15/2023 | Staff

Posted on 10/15/2023 6:47:06 PM PDT by simpson96

COMING TO OTTAWA FOR A LIMITED RUN

The story of Michelle from the little girl growing up in the southside of Chicago who always asking “Why can’t I?” who made her way through Princeton University to Harvard Law School on to a successful career as a corporate lawyer and eventually becoming First Lady.

A new musical by Canada's most prolific writer of musical theatre in the 21st century, Gord Carruth, a national ACTRA award-winning playwright/composer.

This is the first Canadian-written Black musical ever presented in Ottawa featuring a cast of Black actors.

The musical features two outstanding local performers Racquel Sutherland in the role of Michelle and Jamaal Jackson Rogers as Barack. Jamaal was also Ottawa’s English poet Laureate, 2017-19. Racquel serves as Vice-President of the Jamaican Community of Ottawa Association.

The production is raising funds to support the work of The Dementia Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County.

I bet they make a $200 million movie about her, to try to encourage her to run.

What category would such a movie fall under, horror?

At first I thought it was satire but apparently it is not.

Well I suppose that is appropriate.

Patient at University of Chicago Hospital: “You can’t throw me out of here because I’m indigent and have no insurance!”

Moochelle is running in '24 and Joe is not.

Just my guess, but it's well-considered.

And Kamala? A nice parting gift? Not sure.
