Becoming Britney
Synopsis:
Ever wonder what it's like to be an iconic pop star? Well it ain't just headsets and dance steps! After a downward spiral in the spotlight, Britney has an 'outrageous' night that leaves her bald and battling her demons. Wondering if she's gone 'crazy,' Britney must now rid herself of her 'toxic' baggage before the curtain goes up on her new musical. Featuring an original score, go back in time to that fateful day when America's princess of pop hit rock bottom. You'll root for her as she struggles to regain control of herself and shake off her past in this delightful musical spoof.
