Jon Bell is a former member of the Capitol Steps. He toured with the company for 11 years. Prior to putting on a suit to play Barack Obama, you may have seen him singing and dancing in the rock show, “Rockin’ Eve’s Wrath” as the lead singer “Wrath” at Busch Gardens. Jon is so excited to join the new Capitol Fools company! He is ready to get back on stage and play again!!

Evan Casey
Evan Casey spent a dozen years making funny faces and using silly voices for the Capitol Steps. When not searching for rhymes for “filibuster” and “gerrymander”, or harmonizing to the latest debt ceiling crisis, Evan’s pedestrian theatre work has been seen across a variety of stages up and down the east coast, ranging from Off-Broadway to West Palm Beach, FL. He has garnered numerous award nominations throughout his career, the names of which he has conveniently forgotten for the writing of this bio. His work has been celebrated as “Fair to middling!” by the New York Times, and “A face that is easily forgotten!” by Variety. His most important roles are that of father to his two children, Oscar and Alice, and husband to his wife Tracy, although neither production has been open to review from the press.

Kevin Corbett
After Kevin Corbett’s career as a dancer was tragically derailed by the fact that he was a terrible dancer, he turned to a life in comedy. He spent twenty years performing political satire & song parodies with Capitol Steps. Kevin teaches improvisation & comedy to students of all ages at Round House Theatre in Maryland, the National Conservatory of Dramatic Arts in Washington D.C., and various other institutions all across the country. He is currently writing an unauthorized autobiography.

Nancy Dolliver
Nancy Dolliver toured the country with The Capitol Steps for over 25 years. If you haven’t heard of her, that’s by design as she’s been hiding undercover behind the many faces (and wigs) of such well-known people as Monica Lewinski, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Barbara Bush, Sarah Palin, Kellyanne Conway, and other aliases. Nancy’s clandestine work is necessitated by her long career offending audience members from both sides of the aisle and she is pleased to carry forward the political satire torch as a member of the Capitol Fools. Previous undercover work included appearances as her favorite comedienne, Carol Burnett, in “Laughter at Ten O’Clock” and as prolific lyricist Dorothy Fields in “Sunny Side of the Street”.

Emily Levey
Emily Levey is a proud native Washingtonian, so you might say that politics and/or poking fun at politicians runs in her blood (aren’t they kind of the same thing, after all?). Emily has performed at theaters all over the Washington DC area, including a glorious five years with the Capitol Steps. She is overjoyed to continue the tradition of laughing at the ridiculous state of things with the Capitol Fools.”
