About Us

City in a Swamp is a D.C.-based entertainment company that produces live shows, musicals, and satirical videos. In the days leading up to the 2020 elections, the company produced the well-received political satire musical comedy “Apocalypse Soon.” In past years, CIAS has also presented musical revues honoring female composers, a Valentine’s Day production featuring funny songs and sketches about love, a New Year’s show featuring songs from Broadway shows and movies of the 1940s, and several music videos. The company released a studio album featuring jazz vocalist Lena Seikaly and guitarist Steve Herberman, comprised of songs by women lyricists and composers of Broadway, Hollywood, and jazz.

CIAS's newest production Capitol Comedy's "Biden My Time" premiered at the Arts Club of Washington on October 9th and 11th, '21. This summer Capitol Comedy created "Two Cheers For Democracy". It is now touring nationally in cities across America to critical acclaim.
