    When Mr. Punch, the classic cantankerous puppet, decides to get involved in politics, just about anything can (and does) happen. This free-wheeling show combines traditional characters, classic comedy bits, the news of the day, and many surprise guests. By the end of the show, Mr. Punch learns the hard way (and the audience learns the fun way) the importance of the electoral process.

    VOTE FOR MR. PUNCH is created by Adam Gertsacov, a well known Rhode Island artist. Adam is the most educated clown in America, (barring certain elected officials) He has taught and performed professionally throughout the world for the last 15 years. Adam is a Rhode Island Arts-in-Education roster artist. Adam is also the official Clown Laureate of Greenbelt, Maryland.
