Blatantly Blaine – A “Family” Musical

“Kim Kardashian and Book of Mormon’s ISIS musical baby.”

The story opens on a Kardashian-esque family at the peak of their fame, king of the mid-2000’s reality TV scene. After a mysterious feud causes the family to walk away from the show, producer Trevor Beach is ruined. Ten years later, he’s still furious with the Blaines, and wants to find out when they all left him high and dry. Upon flipping through cable news, and seeing the fiery, terror-inducing rhetoric of right-wing pundits, he’s inspired to cook up a scheme to use some terror in order to learn why the Blaines split up so many years ago.

Blatantly Blaine meets your expectations, and then smashes them.

This new musical recently opened at the People’s Improv Theatre, and has no qualms about tackling hot-button issues like terrorism, fearmongering, America’s reality-television fixation, and America’s first family (that isn’t the Obamas).
