I am listening to The Theatre Podcast with Alan Seales' episode with Ana Gasteyer and she talks about how she is currently working on two musicals, one of them she says is an adaptation of a "parody Hallmark Christmas movie" that she wrote with Dratch.

The synopsis of the movie: A go-getter real estate exec from New York City heads to a small town to buy the quaint Clüsterfünke Inn and transform it into a mega-resort. After talking with the owners, she meets their nephew and sparks begin to fly. It starred Gasteyer, Dratch, Cheyenne Jackson, Maya Rudolph, and more.
