Ship of Fools
It’s 2 a.m. in a cruise-ship lounge and singer Vivi Donovan is desperately trying to rescue her sinking musical career. Unfortunately, her only life raft is an unfinished cabaret act costarring the Fleeing Boroshenko Brothers, a trio of political refugees who don’t know the songs — or English, for that matter. This awkward scene sets the stage for My Post-Traumatic Cruise Ship Cabaret, Dana Yeaton and Vanessa Dunleavy’s new musical featuring music by Clint Bierman and the Grift. Dunleavy draws from her own theatrical career to bring Donovan to life, while Bierman and his band mates play the blundering brothers. Together, this motley crew struggles to remain afloat.
