After seeing Bat Boy The Musical, I tried to explain its basic premise to my mother, who asked me, “Can they actually make a good show out of that?” Yes, a production based on a 1992 Weekly World News story about a half-man half-bat creature found in a cave can be compelling!
In Bat Boy The Musical, the creature is found in a small hick town in West Virginia. He’s taken in, cared for and educated by the family of the local veterinarian, but his odd appearance and occasional bloodthirsty tendencies lead to some difficulty in being accepted by the suspicious townsfolk.
