LOS ANGELES, Sept. 28 (UPI) -- Sally Field and Mimi Kennedy will play Laura Bush in a Los Angeles staging of Tony Kushner's play, "Only We Who Guard the Mystery Shall Be Happy."
Kushner -- the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer of "Angels in America" -- wrote the play during the lead-up to the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. The Nation magazine published a scene from the play before the war started, and the play has since been read at numerous anti-war rallies.
"Only We Who Guard the Mystery Shall Be Happy" -- which is highly critical of President George W. Bush's conduct of the war in Iraq -- depicts the first lady reading "The Brothers Karamazov" to three Iraqi children who have been killed as a result of ongoing armed conflict.
Field and Kennedy will both play Laura Bush in the Los Angeles production, scheduled for Monday, Oct. 18, at the Ricardo Montalban Theater in Hollywood. Kushner has given permission for the one-night benefit production, which is intended to raise funds for the liberal political organizations Progressive Democrats of America and Progressive Majority.
you know these Hollywood morons have lost their mind, if they ever had one...who do they think CARES, besides their own choir about stupid, silly, crap like this...
Again -- HOLLYWOOD SHOWS ITS TOTAL LACK OF CLASS with its leftist, tasteless antics. Right where they belong, calibrated foreever, in the gutter.
Just weak, tasteless trash. Take that Sally!!!
Sally who?
Oooooh, heethe geniuth. A Geniuth!
[golf clap]
Let's just say there's little surprise she's disrespecting the First Lady.
This desperation stunt is going to backfire--Big Time. I know a lot of Democrat women (one of whom calls herself a "moderate liberal") who grudgingly admire Laura Bush.
Poor Sally, a little growth hormone would have gone a long way with this poor girl.
As long as Americans keep giving them their money....and the news MSM is in control of the common man's reality....
We will suffer them...
Really want to make media hogs unhappy....ignore them.....seek alternative entertainment...books are good....ignore them....it's the kiss of death for Hollywood idols.....
I highly doubt it. His name is on the theatre, which is not necessarily an endorsement.
The hollywood left don't get it. We don't care! You are irrelevant! I hope someday you wake up so we don't have here your shrill voices.
Hey Sally, We Really,Really DONT Like You!!!!!!!.....
Come on! You like her, you really like her!
I'm going to boycott fine corinthian leather.
In their utopian state, they would be the first group isolated, taken out and shot.
It happened in Russia, Cuba, Cambodia, etc.
They all must be stupid or something!
I hate this. Sally Field had such a cute butt. Damn her.
sally has been reduced to doing this? says it all.
