The wait is finally over.

Coming soon to a theater or community park near you, “Balloon Boy: The Musical.”

“It is a SPELLBINDING feat that will lift you into the ozone before sending you sailing back to the ground in a tenderized heap of regret,” raves Matt Nuclear, OrangeCountyArkansasMorningNeptune.com

“Love springs eternal and this story has several oozing wounds,” simply noted Splender Bloomingdale in Spa and Salon Digest.

“The song ‘They Lied’ is hauntingly melodic,” says Trapper Keeper Sanchez in Bankers’ Quarterly.

Watch Balloon Boy capture America’s heart through song.

With scores by Amelia Robinson and Angelina Campbellina, the story of deceit, shame and reality TV dream set ablaze will mystify your humble senses.

Who could forget the “Ballad of Falcon and his Magical Balloon?”

“Why, why, why, fly, fly, fly, high, high, hi... Falcon and his Magical Balloon take the sky, sky, sky.”

Or how about this one wise people will see coming, “The Storage Space Salute.”

“Attic! I was hiding in the attic. When they found me it was dramatic! The nation was ecstatic! I was hiding in the attic! Attic!”

Deep in the mist of musical static, you will find “Goes to see the Larry King (known in Western Europe as ‘Helium Confessions’).”

“Where is the Larry King? Ding. Ding. Ding.

Who is the Wolf Blitzer Bong. Bong. Bong.

I didn’t come out because you guys said we were doing it for the show.

The show! Which show? We were doing it for the show.

The Larry King was a no-show. Falcon just confessed, oooooh no.”

Also includes the following hits: “Flight of the Wingless Falcon,” “Miraculous Media Marvels Redux,” “Regurgitating Falcon,” “Bad Dad’s D’ Denial,” “Richard and Mayumi a Space Oddity” and the expressly downloadable tune “Delusion: The Death of Magic” as sung by country sensation LeAnn Rimes and the world’s fastest children.

The show’s dramatic conclusion will not only startle, but it will also disappoint.

Seriously, you’ll be totally disappointed and outraged.

We guarentee that you will leave the theater or community park more cynical than when you arrived.

Don’t worry.

It only cost society $50,000 in search in rescue efforts and a little belief in the general goodness of others.

You know I just wonder if anybody on the ground saw that balloon and wasn't aware of what was happening...I mean what would they have thought? Can you imagine sitting out in your backyard and seeing something like that in the sky? That would be sooooo odd!
