"I Say Nevada - Government Bailout Edition" takes a satirical approach to Nevada politics and life in the state.
The comedy continues 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday in the Maizie Harris Jesse Black Box Theatre. Birthday cake in honor of Nevada Day will be served at the final performance.
Written by Robert Leonard Reid, the original version of "I Say Nevada" was staged two years ago.
Reid calls the timing of the release of the revised version "very lucky." The final show is just two days before the general election.
"Everyone's a little bit discouraged about politics these days. We put some perspective on it, " he said, emphasizing that the show is about having fun, not offending people with strong political views.
"I Say Nevada" isn't only about politiciansr. Songs include "There's a Place in My Heart Called Nevada," which is a sentimental look at the state.
Sketches also take a satirical look at Burning Man and Area 51. "Las Vegas the Opera" is a 10-minute complete history of Las Vegas.
Tickets for "I Say Nevada - Government Bailout Edition" are $18 general; $15 student, senior and BAC members, and can be purchased at www.breweryarts.org or call 775-883-1976.
