PALIN THE MUSICAL Comes to the Laurie Beechman Tonight
Where Saturday Night Live meets Forbidden Broadway, Erica Vlahinos and Benjamin Simpson present PALiN: the Live Televised Musical Campaign (www.palinthemusicalcampaign.com), an outrageous new one-act comedy hit that follows Sarah Palin as she embarks on a one-night only, live televised event to set the record straight and announce her candidacy in the 2016 Presidential Election. A fast-paced, witty book paired with show tune parodies, PALiN sharply satires both musical theatre and politics in this laugh-out-loud musical-comedy campaign. So pack your bags, because we're about to have a Tea Party!
Erica Vlahinos is a promising new writer, performer, and comedian thrilled to be bringing her second original work, PALiN: the Musical Campaign! to NYC. Vlahinos, a recent Musical Theatre graduate from the University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music, was last seen performing at The Town Hall in the Broadway's Rising Stars Concert. Other credits include performances in the Kennedy Center Honors as an NFAA Young Arts Finalist and Presidential Scholar in the Arts.
Gregory Sullivan is beyond thrilled to be a part of PALiN and the entire Campaign Team. He was last seen at the Midtown International Theater Festival where he performed the role of Yerkov in "Warp Speed: a Sci Fi Parody Musical," and previously at the White Plains Performing Arts Center as Joly in "Les Miserables" and Woof in "Hair". He graduated from Vassar College with a degree in Drama and studied at the Moscow Art Theater School through the National Theater Institute. He was also recently in the premiere of "The Magic Fish (Boy)" at the Half Moon Theater in Poughkeepsie, NY. Favorite performances include Uncle Vanya (Vanya), Life is a Dream (Clotaldo), and Haarlem Berlin (Marie). A big, huge, universe-sized thank you to his friends, family, and Floof.
