Cast of '1600 Penn' coming to Washington

The stars of a new show spoofing life in the White House are screening the show just blocks from President Obama’s real-life abode.

The cast of NBC’s comedy series “1600 Penn,” including Bill Pullman and Jenna Elfman, will screen the show's pilot episode and do a question-and-answer session at the National Press Club in downtown Washington on Jan 9.

Pullman plays fictional Commander in Chief Dale Gilchrist, while Elfman takes on the role of the first lady. 

The peacock network describes the program as a show about a family that’s “just like everyone else — with one exception: they live in a very special house. The White House!”

Jon Lovett, the show’s co-creator and a former White House speechwriter, will also be on hand to answer questions from attendees of the free, ticketed event, which is open to the public.

“1600 Penn” premieres on NBC on Jan. 10.
