WASHINGTON — Ex-First Lady Michelle Obama kicked off the tour to promote her new book — “The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times” (Crown/Penguin Random House) in which she dishes about daughters Malia and Sasha and their new lives in Los Angeles — with sold-out crowds earlier this week at the Warner Theatre here. The D.C. shows were moderated by Ellen DeGeneres.
Obama brings her book tour to Chicago on Dec. 5 and 6 at the Chicago Theatre. David Letterman helms the Dec. 5 show and Heather McGhee hosts the next evening. The Dec. 5 show is sold-out, but tickets remaining for the Dec. 6 show range from $174.75 to $249.50 at tickemaster.com.
