Dozens of Hollywood and Broadway stars performed and urged Americans to vote for Hillary Clinton at a fundraising concert where tickets went for up to $10,000-a-head.

The 'Broadway for Hillary' concert was held at the St James Theatre in New York City and hosted by Billy Crystal on Monday night, with proceeds going to the Hillary Victory Fund.

Ticket options ranged from $45 for balcony seats to a staggering $100,000 for ten premium orchestra seats as well as two tickets to the wrap party.

But those at home were able enjoy the spectacle free of charge as it was streamed live on Clinton’s Facebook and YouTube page.

While Clinton did not attend, her daughter Chelsea and husband Bill were there to watch the theatrics.

And the string of stage and screen stars who spoke or sang in support of Clinton included Julia Roberts, Helen Mirren, Anne Hathaway, Hugh Jackman, Emily Blunt, Sienna Miller and Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Bill and Chelse both delivered speeches to thank everyone who helped put on the show, which was produced by Jordan Roth, Richie Jackson, Stephen Schwartz and Harvey Weinstein.

The former president spent several minutes delivering remarks praising his wife, telling Americans 'she will make you proud.'

'It is not true that our best days are behind us,' he said. 'You can be forever young and that's what she would like to lead us towards.'

And the Democratic nominee herself made a video appearance in which she joked that she auditioned for the show, but 'didn't make the cut.'

'Hello everyone and welcome to Broadway!' Clinton said in a videotaped address.

'I wish I could be there with you in person. I auditioned for tonight’s show and I wanted to sing with you, but Harvey and Jordan said I didn’t make the cut. Oh well.

'In all seriousness, thanks to all of tonight’s talented performers. History tells us what we did but the arts tell us who we are and where we’re going and what we’re striving for and who we will be.

'Nothing achieves this with more immediacy and truth than living theater. So tonight is a chance to enjoy some of today’s finest actors and artists coming together live, joining art and politics, celebrating our shared vision for an economy that works for everyone and an America, where yes, we are stonger together.'

She added: 'We’re in the final stretch of this campaign and we need your help to reach as many people as possible between now and election day.

The program also features less than subtle references to the threat of fascism proposed by Clinton’s opponent, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Mad Men star Jon Hamm and Jake Gyllenhaal performed a scene from ‘It Can’t Happen Here’ - a 1936 play based on Sinclair Lewis’ novel about a fascist takeover of America, according to The Times.

'Vote,' they urged Americans after their performance. 'The margin of victory has never been more important.'

Former ‘Hamilton’ co-stars Lin-Manuel Miranda and Renée Elise Goldsberry performed a rewritten version of 'The World Was Wide Enough' urging voters to help campaign for Clinton.

The Good Wife actor Alan Cumming spoke at the event on behalf of LGBT community.

He said that hate crimes have skyrocketed this year, but said that Clinton knows that gay rights are human rights.
