Paul Hodge and Michael Hodge have taken history that was already turned on its ear and placed a big golden hoop through its sexy lobe with CLINTON THE MUSICAL. Wherever there was to go – and there were many places, such as Monica Lewinsky, White Water scandals, blue dresses with stains, Kenneth Starr lawsuits, Newt Gingrich blockades, balanced budgets, and even Eleanor Roosevelt – they went there. And a fine time was had by all.
The multi-talented cast includes Tony Award nominee Kerry Butler as Hillary, Tom Galantich and Duke Lafoon as President Clinton, and Emmy Award winner Judy Gold as Eleanor Roosevelt. John Treacy Egan as Newt Gingrich and Kevin Zak as Kenneth Starr steal a couple of scenes while Kara Guy, Dale Hensley, Veronica J. Kuehn, Rob Richardson and Gretchen Wylder inject their unique flair into this artistic mix.
The songs are catchy, the writing is creative, the humor is sophisticated, the sarcasm is sharp, and the characters are lovably crazy. Throw in some innovative choreography, mucho sexual innuendos, and a little retrospective wisdom, and this becomes a piece of comedy heaven. The good ole days have never been better! Treat yourself to a CLINTON THE MUSICAL ticket and put your politics into their proper perspective – fodder for hilarious theatre.
