Rosie O'Donnell and Hamilton Stars Sing Show Tunes Outside White House to Protest Donald Trump

https://people.com/politics/rosie-o-donnell-show-tunes-white-house-donald-trump/


With Pennsylvania Avenue as their stage and lit-up “TREASON” signs as props, Rosie O’Donnell and more than 55 Broadway stars from Hamilton, Wicked and Les Miserables led anti-Trump protestors in song in front of the White House on Monday night — firing up the crowd as the demonstrations reached their 22nd day.

The renowned musicians and singers arrived to Washington, D.C., from New York at around 7:30 p.m., wearing matching shirts that read: “Now showing TRUTH.”

O’Donnell kicked off the evening with a fiery speech.

“Let your voice be heard. Let the president know in no uncertain terms that we are alive, awake and we are woke. We are not going away,” she told protestors.

The Broadway crew, acoustic instruments in tow, carefully chose their presidential serenades — belting out “America the Beautiful,” The Wiz’s “Everybody Rejoice,” The Sound of Music‘s “Climb Every Mountain,” Lis Miserables‘ “Do You Hear The People Sing?” and ending with HAIR’s “Let the Sunshine In.”

Let's end tonight with a great photo of Hillary on the bright summer day of her campaign kickoff, June 2015.
