New Opera Focuses on Bill Clinton's Life - Washington Whispers


If any recent president's life is the stuff of operas, it's Bill Clinton's. There's been comedy, drama, back-stabbing, shouting, crying, death, and many miraculous comebacks. But that's real life. Now art will be imitating life in a project coming together in Little Rock and meant to show how his struggles as a kid raised by a fun-loving mother influenced the making of the 42nd president.
File this under bleh. This might be interesting if Clinton didn't support it--in fact, was actively fighting to have it stopped--but with his support, it is sure to be hagiography.
