BREAKDOWN

NEW PARODY MUSICAL CERTAINLY NOT ABOUT THE WOMEN LINKED TO A DISGRACED FORMER PRESIDENT

SEEKING:

TRACK 1: 40s-50s. Any ethnicity. Cabaret Belt (alto). The OG First Lady. Mother of the original unholy trinity. Needs everything covered in gold. Dry, unimpressed, and aloof. An understated Czech diva.

TRACK 2: 20s-30s. Any ethnicity. Broadway Mix (soprano). Former pageant girl. Lover of God and world peace. Self-proclaimed humanitarian. She’s honored just to be here, but she will win at all costs. #dreamrole

TRACK 3: Late 40s. Any ethnicity. Rocker Belt (alto). Current wife of the most hated man to 51% of America. Must be comfortable in the center(fold) stage. Slovenian is not required. Perennially frowning. She really doesn't care. Do you?

TRACK 4: 30s-40s. Any ethnicity. Broadway Belt/Mix (mezzo). The People's Pornstar. Brash, empowered and always looking to grab truth by the “balls”. Comfortable going with the flow (and being well hydrated). Trashy, but smart as a whip.

TRACK 5: 30s. Any ethnicity. Broadway Soprano/Mix (soprano) Daddy's Little Girl, but won’t have to sit on his lap. Hobbies include: being perfect, nepo baby cabinet position, converting to Judaism. Doubles as a certain politically savvy and overqualified Baby Boomer in a white pantsuit.
