White Noise is billed as "A Cautionary Musical", and is inspired by the real-life teenage white supremacist pop/folk band Prussian Blue. White Noise is described by the authors as follows:
"An adorable pair of sisters, Blanche and Eva, lead the teen band White Noise, mixing irresistible harmonies with white power rhetoric and taking the nation by storm. Their message of racial purity resonates with young people across America and the rise of White Noise coincides with a rise in the white supremacist movement which threatens to engulf the country, as Blanche and Eva prove themselves to be masters of the most terrifying and unstoppable form of Fascism in today's culture: Top Forty pop."
White Noise will run as part of the New York Musical Theater Festival from September 18 to September 30 at the Barrow Group Theater, located at 312 West 36th Street. For more information on performances and ticket sales, please visit the NYMF website at
