A new musical created by a team of Australian brothers, Paul and Michael Hodge, CLINTON made its US debut at the 2014 New York Musical Theatre Festival. CLINTON was also presented at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe where it received a nomination for best new musical, then transferred to King's Head, London.

The official description reads: "It's hard enough being president by yourself. Bill Clinton's problem is that there are two of him. Literally. CLINTON follows two Bill Clintons and Hillary on their quest to save their presidency and change America. With appearances by the Clintons, Newt Gingrich, Kenneth Star, Monica Lewinsky, Dick Morris and, of course, Eleanor Roosevelt."
