Review
‘Operation 1600’s Mission: A Good Laugh with a Political Message - Her Campus: https://www.hercampus.com/school/harvard/operation-1600-s-mission-good-laugh-political-message
“‘Operation 1600’ had everything from an incoherent, cheeto-faced president to a hacker/narrator to Joe Biden. The sold out show depicted a ragtag team of unlikely heroes performing a heist in the White House to find and preserve the real constitution, and with it the sanctity of American government. The play satirized Trump-era government and provided a surprising commentary on extremism. While the play was very funny, using a variety of comedic techniques from word play to visual humour, it also reminded audiences of the ever present threat of radicalization as a response to a broken system.”
