On Monday, the dignitaries hosted by President and Mrs. Obama will bring their regards from Broadway, not 10 Downing Street, while sharing talents that collectively have won them 11 Tony Awards.
The public is invited to watch -- eventually -- on "A Broadway Celebration," which will be taped for broadcast Oct. 20 as an installment in the PBS series, "In Performance at the White House."

The President is scheduled to introduce the evening that boasts performances by Lane (Guys & Dolls, The Addams Family), McDonald (Ragtime, Master Class), Pinkins (Caroline, or Change, Jelly’s Last Jam) and songwriter Hamlisch (A Chorus Line, Sweet Smell of Success) as well as Idina Menzel (Wicked), Brian d’Arcy James (Next to Normal), Chad Kimball (Memphis) and Karen Olivo (West Side Story). Also performing is young actress Assata Alston and the Joy of Motion Dance Center ensemble.
In addition to the evening concert, a 2 PM dress rehearsal features students from the Duke Ellington School of the Arts and the Joy of Motion Dance Center, who are scheduled to perform a number from Hairspray under the direction of Tony-winning choreographer Jerry Mitchell.
Party like its’ Paris-1789!
LOL 0 doesn’t have time to work!
The chief campaigner and master of ceremonies all rolled into one commie.
I often wonder if he only ran for President so that he could “live it up” in the white house. That’s what it looks like anyway.
C’mon, don’t be so hard on the Obamas. They need the break since they haven’t had a vacation in 18 hours.
I’m reminded of Hitler’s generals in the last days of WWII. Engaging in orgies and parties deep in their bunkers while Berlin crumbled above them.
Our useless, imposter, “movin’ on up” president (nobama) and his bizarre “never worked an honest day in our lives” family are surely enjoying their selves on the tax payers’ dime. party like it is 2010! They won. Just what is anyone going to do about it, suckas...

You’ve nailed it, actually. He wanted the prestige...didn’t realize it was such a big f*ckin responsibility, though.
I’ve stated here before that Obama has destroyed the chances for the election of another “African-American” President for the next fifty years.
I may now amend that prediction -— 100 years at least!
All the blacks who think he’s your brother, wake up! He’s ruined the future for you and your children.
There are even comments from people regretting their vote for Obama!
Comments like that can open up the floodgates of people thinking the same way.
