Monica, The Musical

The Smoking Gun

American Idol castoff Frenchie Davis has been cast as President Clinton’s White House secretary Betty Currie in New York’s Monica! The Musical!

The satire about the relationship between the president and White House intern Monica Lewinsky is scheduled to premiere Sept. 21 during the New York Musical Theatre Festival, Playbill Online reports.

You know, I honestly have thought this was a good idea for a movie.  Musical?  I dunno about that.  Something about hearing an aria of Monica with Bill and the cigar just doesn’t make for something I really need to hear.

I did check the show dates just to be objective.  Unfortunately they apparently have no intentions of bringing the show to rural Kentucky.  If anyone does catch in New York, I would be interested in a review.

Hat tip to Polipundit.  The general consensus on Polipundit seems to be most people think it will suck. ( huh, huh, huh! )

    It’s a New York thing, you wouldn’t understand.

    Kinda like why people want to see a train wreck, makes no sense but they do it anyway.

    The critics will try to defend the Clintons and destroy the show but the folks will want to see that only because someone said it was real bad, which BTW, it probably is.
