Hillary Clinton at the 2024 Tony Awards CBS
Hillary Clinton made a surprise appearance at the 2024 Tony Awards and received a standing ovation from all those present at the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City.
Clinton was there to present a musical number from Suffs: The Musical, a Broadway production based on suffragists and the American women’s suffrage movement.
“I have stood on a lot of stages, but this is very special,” Clinton said after she took the stage. “I know a little bit about how hard it is to make change.”
Clinton said she was really proud of the musical by Shaina Taub, now a two-time Tony winner.
“It is about some American originals,” Clinton continued. “The suffragists who fought so valiantly for so long to give women in our country the right to vote. It’s almost impossible to think about what a challenge that was.”
Clinton reminded everyone that in “an election year” people “need to be reminded about how important it is to vote.”
