Based on the sensational story published in The Weekly World News, Bat Boy: The Musical is a fang-tastic rock musical that takes you on a wild journey into the life of a half-boy, half-bat creature. Discovered in a cave near Hope Falls, West Virginia, Bat Boy is taken in by the town veterinarian’s family and sets off on quest for acceptance, love, and the truth about his unholy origins. Through humor, heart, and an incredible rock musical score, the show explores themes of prejudice, compassion, and what it truly means to be human.
Indulge your curiosity and uncover the shocking secrets that lie beneath the surface of this simple mountain town.
