When I think of Betty Boop, I think of someone incredibly positive, a leader, a female who is
0:06
powerful. She has always been a symbol of female empowerment. Betty Boop has run for president
0:11
Betty Boop has been a nurse, doctor. Betty Boop has done everything you can possibly imagine
0:16
with moxie, wit, ingenuity, talent, brains. We have an incredible creative team for Boop the
0:26
musical. Bob Mart working on the story, Susan Birkenhead, myself, David Foster, and I'm so in
0:33
awe of his ability to sit down at a piano and come up with a melody that sticks in my head
0:39
Please don't turn your back upon yours truly yet. A little versatility never quite

Boop is a musical about a young girl who's on a journey to find something that's missing
0:52
She's not relying on love, but it's the one thing she wants to add to her repertoire
0:58
And when she does, her world turns to color. I want someone to make me someone I never was. Something to shout about whatever it does
1:17
She's stood the test of time and she's always remained positive and powerful without letting
1:25
go of any of herself. I think that's pretty iconic and I think that image and that idea
1:31
for young people, young girls especially, is a really powerful image today
1:36
Boop the musical is intended for everyone. It's really a family musical
