Scott gave us his best Bobby Kennedy meets Bobby Van. (All images by Matthew Rettenmund)

Rushed over to Scott Nevins's 49 Days Till Herstory Hillary Clinton fundraiser at Industry last night just in time for the VIP meet-and-greet, at which I was happy to see Scott, chat with Nick Adams and his biceps (Nick did most of the talking, his arms are the strong, silent type), the incredible Randy Rainbow (who recognized me by my “cute” face, blush) and Broadway superstar Laura Benanti.

Benanti mock-fumed that a friend chatted with her for 20 minutes without realizing she as pregnant.

I raved to Laura about her performance in Gypsy, as well as her Melania Trump impersonation. No surprise, that impersonation because the centerpiece of a lively evening. (I'm hoping to receive my pic with her from a photog who was on hand.)

Scott 'n' Matt

I can't get enough Nick!

Oh, Randy—he came and he gave without takin'.

Inside, Shayna Steele kicked things off with a stirring national-anthem belt-fest:

Scott had some funny words about how we all know Donald Trump, and how he came to be a Hillary fan in an anti-Clinton household:

Benanti came out and joked about letting herself go (she's preggers, and radiant) before telling the story of how she came to play Melania:

She also read some famous texts in Melania's voice, but we were asked not to record that just in case it was repurposed to frame Hillary supporters as mean. (When the other side has made bigotry a campaign promise.)

Marty and the other divas

Scott rails against the people's grouch—Donald Trump.

She's voting for Hillary even though a Melania reign as First Lady would keep her employed.

Kristy & Matt

Morgan & her shadow!

Adams's “God Bless America” was bari-Tony-worthy—I didn't know he had the range:

The evening also included the vocal stylings of Marty Thomas Presents DIVA, Matt Doyle, Kristy Cates and Morgan James—and nobody let anybody down:

As the evening wound down, comic Judy Gold wound it back up, thrashing Trump in a way that would make Elizabeth Warren squirm, and making us laugh with her appropriate and inappropriate humor (what's inappropriate anymore?):

As a special treat, Randy did his schtick live and did it flawlessly. The cadence has got to be murder to get down pat, and if he forgets a word, it's a house of cards. He didn't forget a word:

 

Great, exciting event that raised $10,000 for Team Hillary!

Take a bow!

As we left, I saw this sign and thought it would be a nice thing to say to Trump voters after November 8, no matter how things go:
