Inhaltsangabe
Written in four acts presented across two parts, TRUMPED: An Alternative Musical is a satirical stage play that parodies the 2016 Presidential Election campaign of Donald Trump and his subsequent time in office as the 45th President of the United States.
Picking up some weeks after the conclusion of Part One, Act III opens as the President is presumed missing by his closest supporters, and Vladimir Putin is becoming tiresome of ruling from the front lines.
Act IV opens with an opportunity to discover how Trump's predecessor is coping with his post-presidential life and his thoughts on the upcoming Midterm elections. Leaving island life behind, the action then returns to Trump as he discovers that under his leadership, the Republican Party is set for a historic loss.
Coming to a close in late 2019, this final act builds up to an interpretation of events as they should have been, with the President finally being held to account.
