Bat Boy: The Musical
a musical with story and book by Keythe Farley
music and lyrics by Laurence O’Keefe

Directed by Mark Liebert
Music Director - Jalmari Vanamo
Stage Manager - Judi Liebert

Ripped from the headlines of The Weekly World News, Bat Boy: The Musical is a classic love story with a serious bite. This delicious twist on the modern day musical comedy tells the amazing story of a strange boy with pointy ears, his struggle to find a place in a world that shuns him, and the love that can create both miracles and madness. It’s My Fair Lady meets The Rocky Horror Picture Show!
