Bla Bla Land is a parody not only of La La Land, but of many other film musicals, including Hollywood Hotel, Singin’ In the Rain, The Band Wagon, Mary Poppins, and Funny Girl, satirizing new Hollywood as well as old. The musical tells the story of three talented actors swept up in the waves of show business—and all the melodrama that ensues.
Seating for the reading is on a first-come, first-served basis.
