PALIN THE MUSICAL to Play Laurie Beechman Theatre This Spring

"'Girls just want to have fun,' you know it, I know it, but Erica Vlahinos is living it. Picking up her cues from power chicks from Tina Fey to Lena Dunham, Lil' Kim to Lily Allen, Vlahinos has set her laser sharp sights on the trail blazziest of unlikely trail blazzers - in a word, PALiN.

Vlahinos, a 2014 CCM grad, not only created, produced and wrote the book and lyrics for the new parody musical, but she also stars as the polarizing pundit herself. Less than a year after moving to New York, Vlahinos has hit the ground running in her quest to bring the do-it-all, funny women movement into the musical theatre. PALiN set up shop at the Beechman back in September as a one-night only event and has quickly developed a cult following and a recurring spot. It's South Park-esque zingers paired with a young, fresh political perspective have allowed Vlahinos to sling satire over her should like the newest Kate Spade. PALiN wears parody like Hillary wears a pantsuit: strong and comfy.

Unafraid, unrelenting and unflinching PALiN lives a the hunger games style world, where politics and entertainment have unapologetically mixed. Following the massive success of NBC's LIVE Musicals, the Board of Elections has revolutionized the campaign process by requiring all 2016 presidential candidates to present a LIVE Poli-Cabaret Musical. After months of rehearsals with Broadways best, this evening marks the most important tie-breaker is history, with Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin still neck in neck to see who will become our first female president.

So skip your way down that yellow brick road to the White House with the self anointed 'Maverick of Melody.'

Warning: You man have to use your brain. But rest assured that Sarah won't."
