The Atlantic Theater Company's Atlantic for Kids division on Wednesday announced that She Persisted — the musical adaptation of Chelsea Clinton's children's book She Persisted: 13 American Women Who Changed the World — will debut in New York next year. Performances will begin Feb. 22 at Atlantic's Linda Gross Theater in Manhattan.

She Persisted centers on a fourth-grader named Naomi, whose field trip to a Women’s History Museum turns into a time-travel adventure where she encounters inspirational women who have overcome barriers and made waves throughout U.S. history. The musical features the stories of female trailblazers such as Harriet Tubman, Helen Keller, Clara Lemlich, Nellie Bly, Virginia Apgar, Maria Tallchief, Claudette Colvin, Ruby Bridges, Margaret Chase Smith, Sally Ride, Florence Griffith Joyner, Oprah Winfrey and Sonia Sotomayor.

Bad piece of litterature that would be thrown in the dustbin if it were not for her name and the communist village theme

Sorry for the grossness, but...it’s Hillary and Chelsea we’re talking about here.

3 display cases and 2 tables will be stacked to the ceiling at the entrance to Barnes & Noble. Meanwhile, every book exposing the coup against Trump will have 1 copy displayed in the back corner of the building, somewhere in the children’s section, half obscured by coloring books, with the rest of the copies in unopen boxes in the store room.

Ask me how I know.

It is always this way. The commie Rat books get massive in-your-face exposure while conservative books are hidden from site. Which makes it even more amazing when conservative books are best sellers and liberal commie Rat books are failures.

“She Persisted...”

Persisted like skunk odor...but even that eventually dissipates. Clinton stank just goes on and on.

If she’s a wise one I wonder what dumb ones are like.

That's a good one, but it's before its time or it would end up in fiction.

All of the books written by the Clintons are complete fictions.

I CAN’T wait to see how miserably the turnout is for this thing. They just don’t get it. We’re done with you.

- You found a flop.
- "A flop"! That's putting it mildly. We've found a disaster, a catastrophe, an outrage! - A guaranteed-to-close-in-one-night beauty.
- Let's see it.
This is freedom from want forever. This is a house in the country. This is a Rolls Royce and a Bentley. This is wine, women, and song... and women.
"She Persisted." "A gay romp with Hillary and Chelsea at Chappaqua." - Wow!
- Wow!
It's practically a love letter to Hillary.
- This won't run a week.
- A week? Are you kidding? This play has got to close on page four.
- Who wrote it?
- Who? Read, read. Right there. Read, read.
- Hillary and Chelsea Clinton.
