When a half-boy/half-bat creature is discovered in a cave near fictional Hope Falls, West Virginia, the local vet’s wife sets out to teach him the ways of civilization only to be thwarted by the colorful, narrow-minded, “civilized” town folk who have something else in mind. In the tradition of Sophocles, Sondheim and South Park—with hints of Mary Shelley, Tim Burton and Mel Brooks. BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL is a classic love story with a wicked bite! </div><div> </div><div><em>"Big laughs…It's remarkable what intelligent wit can accomplish—a jaggedly imaginative mix of skewering humor and energetic glee."</em>—New York Times.</div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva;"><em>"Composed with smarts, staged with savvy and performed with gusto, BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL is a winner.
