Meghan McCain Reveals Her Family Had No Clue About ‘Ghost Of John McCain’ Musical
HuffPost
The late senator’s daughter said she wasn’t “aware” of the production, which is set to depict her father “inside the mind of Donald Trump.”
Meghan McCain has claimed she had no knowledge of a new musical inspired by her late father, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.).
Her remarks arrive after Quixote Productions and former McCain campaign aide Max Fose, co-producers of the stage production, announced a “by-invitation only industry reading” of “The Ghost of John McCain” in New York on Thursday.
“My family has not authorized it nor was aware of it. I was as surprised as everyone else to see the announcement,” Meghan McCain wrote in a statement to The Messenger.
The production features a book from playwright Scott Elmegreen and a score from composer Drew Fornarola, which offers “a unique psychological exploration of power, rivalry, and the human condition,” according to a press release.
The musical describes the late senator as awakening and “horrified to find himself back in captivity, in the afterlife, inside the mind of Donald Trump.”
