Obama On My Mind

Obama On My Mind

Obama on my Mind is a musical play about Barack Obama presidential campaign by British crime writer and film producer Teddy Hayes.

The play, a musical comedy, is a campaign story set the week after the 2008 Republican Convention, a time when the nomination of Sarah Palin for vice President had caused Obama to fall 20 percent in the polls.[1][2]

Reviews were strongly negative. Lyn Gardner wrote a critical review in The Guardian, describing the musical as "opportunistic", and as a "bizarrely unfocused text - an apparently unedited stream of consciousness".[3]
