The curtain will be falling early on a Broadway play featuring Bill and Hillary Clinton as the lead characters because of poor ticket sales.
The play, Hillary and Clinton, which stars Laurie Metcalf as Hillary Clinton and John Lithgow as Bill Clinton, is set to close on June 23 nearly a month before its previously planned close on July 21, according to Hollywood Reporter.
A production by Scott Rudin, it is set in an alternate universe and is based on imagined interactions between Bill and Hillary Clinton in a New Hampshire hotel during the latters unsuccessful 2008 presidential campaign.
The play cost $4.2 million to produce, and by the time it ends, will have had 37 preview and 77 regular performances. Despite the poor performance at the box office, the production earned a Tony nomination for Metcalfs portrayal of the former secretary of state.

Well, heck. Have to cancel the trip to New York. I mean, what’s the point now?
That’s what Metcalf gets for stabbing Roseanne in the back.
I would have gone with Bill Macy and Felicity Huffman ...
Yes, I did consider mentioning the chicken wire, too. :-)
Russians hacked the ticket sales.
Was it rated R or X?
Not surprised - many things that liberals think everyone else just LOVES aren’t really all that popular, except in their own sheltered enclaves.

They could have called it "Springtime For Hillary!"
It should have featured Monica Lewinsky.
Fitting!!!! Why didn’t they just video the real events of that evening - we’d all pay to see the real thing!!!
The only reason to go to this waste of time would be to throw rotten vegetables at the players. What a pathetic laugh! Criminal loser clintoons fail yet again. What criminal despicable losers.
Exactly, and I’m sure Roseanne has to quite amused at this as well. ;)
Thanks simpson96.
Your comment rightwingintelligentsia was going to be MY comment... great minds think in the same ruts... etc...
...reminds me of Obama getting the Nobel Peace Prize weeks after taking office - transparent hypocritical butt-kissing liberals fawning over each other. How predictable.
