It started drunk in a bar, LOL, where all great ideas happen.
Thank you so much.
I was doing dinner theater in Los Angeles.
I had left Broadway.
I'd done like 10 years of Broadway shows.
And then I was like, I want to be a writer.
How hard can it be?
And God was like, he, he, see you, witch.
It's going to be really hard.
And I just, I lost everything in LA.
I lost all my money and I wound up working at dinner theater.
And we were doing movie to musical parodies like True Beverly Hills and Devil Wears Prada.
And Konstantin Rassouli, the co-author of this, one of the co-authors, was like, what if we did a Titanic parody with Celine Dion and you'll be Celine?
And I was like, absolutely not.
Not because I, not because I, I just, I love her so much.
I was like, I'm going to ruin her.
I'm going to ruin her.
And I was too scared.
So for two years, we just didn't, we sat on the idea.
And then Ty Blue, the director, one day, who also worked at the dinner theater, was like, we have to do this.
