Walmart: The Musical?

Walmart became so big and scary, a musical was made about the effect Walmart has and could eventually have on our world. The political satire, "Walmartopia" premiered in Madison Wisconsin. "Walmartopia" was composed by Andrew Rohn and written by Catherine Capellaro. This was a full-fledged off-Broadway production of a single mom named Vicki Latrell and her young daughter who, after standing up to Vicki's corporate employer, find themselves left in a future where Walmart runs the world. This musical originated from the term "Wal-mart mom", who is "someone with a middle to low income and a low education level who feels politically conservtive and economically insecure."
