Two Special Guests at In The Heights

Posted: 12/28/08 at 1:13am

I just saw In The Heights for the first time and I thought it was great! But anyway, about two minutes before the show started Hillary and Bill Clinton walked in and they couldn't have been more gracious! They posed for pictures, shook hands, and signed autographs. The energy in the theatre was amazing! Just thought I'd let all of you know!

Comedy is much more difficult than tragedy-and a much better training, I think. It's much easier to make people cry than to make them laugh.

I was there too! I couldn't see them, since I was at the very top of the mezz, but the energy was crazy. Everyone was buzzing about it. And of course, the show was amazing!

Hillary and Chelsea saw Billy Elliot earlier this month too. Are these Clinton sighting common? I would imagine the show's start time would be delayed...?

Hillary is a huge theatre patron, she loves it, as does Chelsea. Not sure about Bill, I think he just tags along.

I think it's so cool how many high-profile guests the show is attracting.

What other famous people have been seen at the show? I know Britney Spears has seen it. When I saw it back in September, Dustin Hoffman was in the audience!
