NEW YORK (AP) — President Barack
Obama heads to Broadway next month as part of a double bill with
former President Bill Clinton — and the stars will be out to
welcome them.
James Earl Jones,
Angela
Lansbury, Patti LuPone, Audra McDonald, Mandy Patinkin, Nina Arianda,
Kerry Butler, Norbert
Leo Butz, Bobby Cannavale, Stockard Channing, Megan Hilty
and Cheyenne Jackson are some of the performers slated to attend the
June 4 fundraiser.
"Barack on
Broadway" is one of two events that day that will join Obama and
Clinton. The two presidents will also attend a dinner featuring a
performance by Jon Bon Jovi.
The
fund-raiser will be at the New Amsterdam Theatre, the home of "Mary
Poppins" and will be directed by George C. Wolfe.
