If "Legally Blonde" and "Next to Normal" had a passive-aggressive-Southern-Jewish-baby, they would name it, "Bless Your Heart." This trauma-bonding, intergenerational folk-pop musical will inspire you to craft your own future...and make your own family seem "normal" somehow.

A cross between Legally Blonde, Next to Normal, and Falsettos, Bless Your Heart is a trauma-bonding rabbit hole, set to a pop-folk soundtrack, that begs the question, “if life isn’t a fairy tale, can it still have a happy ending?”
Bless Your Heart is a semi-autobiographical musical tale that follows Bardot Bregman’s journey through the turbulent reality that is the 1960’s family she is born into, but doesn’t belong to.
Along the way, she discovers how the legacy of her family’s narcissism grew and was handed down from her Southern, Jewish, immigrant, grandparents to their aspirational American daughters, four Silver Screen starlet wannabes.
Torn between the obligation to be the dutiful “good daughter,” and self-preservation, Bardot travels through the looking glass to discover her inner child and shared memories that become the twin gifts of 20/20 hindsight and foresight.
This contemporary musical will inspire you to craft your own future...and make your own family seem "normal" somehow.
