Supporting Barre BFF’s The True Heroines!

          

As some of you may already know, aside from being a fabulous Barre instructor, Paula Giroday is also a professional dancer, actress and performer!

She is also one of the brainchild’s behind the witty and fun webseries-turned-live performance troupe, The True Heroines

The True Heroines  is an original episodic sci-fi dramedy produced for the web. The web-series explores the lives of three seemingly “normal” housewives with superpowers, as they evade the evil corporation that brought them to be. With flashbacks to their former lives as cabaret dancers, The True Heroines offers the tone of Mad Men, the comedy of Glee and the darkness of Heroes rolled into one crazy adventure in the spirit of the Original Batman Series.

From now until May 29, these wonderful ladies are hoping to raise $20,000 in order to film their next 10 webisodes.
