The Venn diagram of Keeping Up with the Kardashians watchers and fans of the Broadway musical Cats probably looks more like two separate circles, but that didn’t stop Bob and Tobly McSmith (of the Saved By the Bell parody Bayside! The Musical) from mashing them up into Katdashians: Break the Musical.
The completely unauthorized parody began its life Off-Off Broadway at Theatre 80 and is making the jump to Times Square’s Off-Broadway Elektra Theatre on June 16.

The show has about as much plot as the lives of the Kardashian clan —which is to say, the joy of Katdashians is all in letting the absurdity wash over you. There’s even a special seating area called the Selfie Zone, where the cast come up to take photos with the audience during a musical number called The Selfie Song. Because just like cats, the Kardashians must sometimes reluctantly admit they need us regular people to keep their bread buttered.
Katdashians is slated to run from June 16 through July 30; tickets are $25-$45. Cheers!
