semi-original idea blending reality with drama
The ever developing world of reality TV has now got to a point where producers are trying to come up with original ideas blending drama into the mix.
You've got the dual dramas of Moving Wallpaper & Echo Beach with the former being a spoof making of the latter as well as Andrew Lloyd Webber casting the replacement for Maria with Hollyoaks star Summer Strallen but by writing him into the script of the soap, they're making reality become fictional as they follow the new girl into the west end role.
Britannia High starts off with two documentaries about the stars of the show and how they came to be cast followed by the show itself which has been called a mixture of Fame & High School Musical as the group of talented young actors/singers/dancers begin their careers in show business which draws parallels to their real life situations.
Where will all this reality meets drama go next?
