Make Believe Stage Productions Announces Cast for NY Fringe Production of THE VIDEO GAMES

MB Stage Productions announces their official New York International Fringe Festival Cast of The Video Games. The Video Games is a one of a kind choose your own adventure, parody of the Hunger Games where iconic video game characters battle to the death. Princess Zelda, the Queen of The Console, is celebrating the 64th Annual Video Games and needs the audience's assistance (through the use of social media) to ensure that this year's Games are bigger, badder, and bloodier than the year before!
