CREATED BY DAVID PETERSON. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL BY FRED ALLEY & JEFFREY HERBST.

Northern Sky spices up election season with a musical look back at presidential campaign history. This show, which has been performed during every election year since 1992, features facts, jokes, and songs from presidential elections from 1776 to the present.

2016 Fall Show Features Jeffrey Herbst, Jake Endres, and Karen Mal. Showing Thursdays through Mondays, September 29th through October 16th.

Compiled by David Peterson, Fred Alley, and Jeffrey Herbst, And If Elected takes a lighthearted, often satirical, and occasionally poignant look at the complete history of the presidential election, telling stories of mudslinging and muck-raking that have surprised and delighted audiences for almost 20 years. The show also unearths the numerous campaign songs that have been used as political tools throughout American history.

The show features Northern Sky performer and Artistic Director Jeffrey Herbst, who has performed in each incarnation of the show since 1992. Herbst’s life-long passion for presidential trivia comes alive in the production. Returning to Northern Sky is Minneapolis-based performer Jake Endres. Rounding out the three-person cast is Karen Mal.
