Plays for Presidents Festival Information

The Plays for Presidents Festival is dedicated to promoting election-year, nationwide theatre events that celebrate the connection between our vote and our history. The Plays for Presidents Festival inspired 44+ separate productions of 44 Plays for 44 Presidents across the country in the months leading up to the 2012 Presidential Election. The effort involved 1,600 theatre artists from professional, college, school and community theatres and reached audiences upwards of 21,000. In the process, we distributed more than 13,000 voter registration forms as a Rock The Vote partner.
