Photo Flash: It's a Birthday Mystery at MADDIE'S KARAOKE BIRTHDAY PARTY
It's Maddie's 25th birthday party but something's not right - the guest of honour hasn't shown up yet! Join five of Maddie's best friends as they try to sort out where the birthday girl is at while they fight to keep the party's spirits high (and struggle to keep their own dark secrets hidden). This intimate, interactive story unfolds over a series of hilarious and heart-breaking Karaoke-style songs in a party environment where the audience are fellow guests.
Directed by Byron Laviolette with musical direction by Barbara
