Fashion model and actor Arron Blake is to star in Fashion Victim - The Musical!, a thoroughly modern morality tale of style-crossed lovers set in the cutthroat world of la mode.

Fashion Victim - The Musical! is a must-see for all front row fashionistas in the making... and audiences are actively encouraged to boo, hiss or cheer - as they see fit - the chutzpah of Mimi Steele in a story of laughs, love and sharp practices in the cutting edge world of fashion.
