Keeping up with the Boujees” is a political satire weaved through a scandalous family drama! The Bowen's are as Boujee as they come, but appearances are getting harder to keep now that their father is running for a Political seat

When asked about themes of the play, Pinder shared “Keeping up with the Boujees definitely addresses a lot of family issues. We see a lot of Bahamian stories of infidelity, sibling rivalry and jealousy told throughout this drama. The play also addresses controversial topics that we tend to shy away from talking about but are very aware are occurring in our community.
