Kennedy Center to Replace "Hamilton" with New Musical, "Burr"

[Zorro]

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Reacting to the decision by the producers of “Hamilton” to withdraw the show from the Kennedy Center, Donald J. Trump announced on Thursday that he would replace the production with a new musical, “Burr.”

The show, which will star Ted Nugent as Aaron Burr, will be produced by a new patron of the arts, The National Rifle Association.

“‘Hamilton,’ quite frankly, is no great loss,” Trump said. “It was an unsuccessful musical that no one wanted tickets for.”

“Burr is my kind of American hero,” he added. “He shot a guy.”

2. What's truly funny

is how blurred the line is between over the top ridiculous satire/comedy and nothing-shocks-me-anymore real possibilities.

Like, nobody that read this would be surprised if this was being reported as a real story on Maddow's show.
