"Do You Hear The People Sing" - 25th Anniversary Performance of Les Miserables.
It's not getting a lot of media attention, but ever since Donald Trump's blatant display of puppetude with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, there has been a nightly protest in front of the White House, grown pretty organically through the organization of former Hillary Clinton 2016 adviser, Adam Parkhomenko.
They've been fun events. Rain or shine, Adam and John Aravosis of AMERICAblog have tried to make them as loud as possible; each day a different genre: mariachi, opera, rap. The goal is to make the resident in the White House (which they have dubbed "the Kremlin Annex") aware that they're out there and they want him out.
But tomorrow, after Trump gets home from his golfing weekend, there's a little surprise waiting for him: Actress Rosie O'Donnell, one of his favorite pre-presidency bullying targets, will be leading other Broadway actors and actresses to raise their voices against Vladimir's guy.
The group will sing âThe Peopleâs Songâ from âLes Miserables,â Burt Bacharachâs âWhat the World Needs Now Is Love,â âA Brand New Dayâ from âThe Wizâ and âClimb Evâry Mountainâ from âThe Sound of Musicâ from Lafayette Park.
The performers will be current and former Broadway cast members from âWicked,â âBeautiful,â âHamilton,â âPhantom of the Opera,â âThe King and I,â âLes Miserables,â âCinderella,â âXanadu,â âThe Producers,â âHead Over Heelsâ and more.
I bet Melania will secretly enjoy it.
