On Monday July 24th, the Obamas hosted a starry event at the White House that was streamed live on the White House Official Website and right here on Broadway World that featured the top talents of the Great White Way singing the very best songs by (mostly) American composers.

Plus, an extra-special treat from the Tony Awards performance of SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS!
