Sign of the Apocalypse: “Octomom the Musical” Now Casting

Apr 30, 2009 | Filed Under: Pop Culture | Tags: Nadya Suleman, OctoMom, Sign of the Apocalypse

Just when you thought things couldn’t get any weirder than Kim Kardashian’s wig making headlines in the Los Angeles Times, a new musical about Octomom Nadya Suleman is under way — and is, in fact, currently casting at a theater just a few blocks away from my house.

Hmmmm… I’ve already got the belly.   And I really do kick ass in singing “Shoop” at karaoke.  All I need to do is add a few pounds to my lips and lose a few marbles, and the lead role could be mine, all mine!

Producers released a description of what it takes to play Octomom:

[OCTO AND VARIOUS] Female, Mid 20’s – mid 30’s. Funny, whimsical, but not too charactery. She should be able to command authority, play broad range of facial expressions plus physical comedy. Sketch and improv experience a plus. Likable, energetic and at the same time able to be emotionally expressive and believable.  Can handle musical theatre and pop styles a plus.  Actress who can move.

Oh, they want me to move?  Forget it.

Possible songs for the production include:

–Gold Digger

–Crazy (“I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind.  There was something so pleasant about that clinic…”)

–C’mon ‘N Ride It (“It’s the gravy train…”)

–I’m Bringing BastersBack
