An actor portrays President Barack Obama at a campaign rally with people holding up signs that read, 'Obama' in the background. A man at another podium stands behind him.
T.J. Wilkins stars as President Barack Obama in the satire: 'THE unOFFICIAL, unSANCTIONED OBAMA MUSICAL (As Told Through the Hazy Recollection of Joe Biden).'

The musical satire THE unOFFICIAL, unSANCTIONED OBAMA MUSICAL (As Told Through the Hazy Recollection of Joe Biden) returns for 20 shows at the Bourbon Room in Hollywood. T.J. Wilkins (NBC’s “The Voice”) stars as Barack Obama, and singer Shanice plays First Lady Michelle Obama. It was created by Eli Bauman, a former Obama campaign organizer and TV writer who wrote the music, lyrics, and book and directed the show. Some songs were co-written with his father, Jon “Bowzer” Bauman, from the ‘70s group Sha Na Na, and band leader, music director, and music co-producer Anthony “Brew” Brewster.
