'Clinton: the Musical' comes to New York
Politico ^ | 6-24-14 | Kendall Breitman

Posted on 06/24/2014 5:55:51 PM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

The Clinton family has taken the center stage in politics, and in July an adaption of the former first family will take center stage in musical theater.

“Clinton: The Musical” will make its U.S. debut in New York City’s New York Musical Theater Festival this summer, from July 18-25.

“It’s hard enough being president by yourself. Bill Clinton’s problem is that there are two of him. Literally,” the show’s description reads. “Clinton follows two Bill Clintons and Hillary on their quest to save their presidency, change America and prove that ‘politics is show business for ugly people.’”

The Clintons will be played by Karl Kenzler, who plays W.J. Clinton, Duke Lafoon, who plays “Billy” Clinton and Alet Taylor, who plays Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The musical, created by Australian brothers Michael and Paul Hodge, was nominated best new musical at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

The play will be showcased at the Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theater at the Pershing Square Signature Center and will feature characters such as Newt Gingrich and Monica Lewinsky. Tickets are $25.

Scene opens. Bill sits at the dinner table, hair and collar askew paying bills.

Bill: “Hillary I jes don know what we’re gonna do. We’re flat broke. We may have to ask one of our well off friends to buy one of our 15 mansions at 4X the market price just to make ends meet.”

“Clinton: The Musical” was the title because “COCK” is already playing in DC.

Somebody named LaFoon playing Billy Clinton. Why not just name him “Billy The Buffoon Clinton” and drop the actor’s name?

Who’s playing Hitlery, Rosie O’Donnell?

Eat a plate of beans and you don’t have to pay to hear a Clinton musical.

Is it more flattering than “That’s my bush?”

Springtime for Bubba and Hillary
Democrats are happy and gay
They’re lying at a faster pace
A pair that’s really a complete disgrace

‘politics is show business for ugly people.’”

Will the whole show be plagiarized Rush Limbaugh lines?
