Nathan Hale Productions presents: "Bat Boy: The Musical"  May 8 – May 17

Bat Boy comes to Nathan Hale to "sing for his supper" - can he be trusted?  Bat Boy may be familiar to you from the tabloid “Weekly World News” and this show is every bit as outlandish as their headlines. BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL is a rock musical and a classic love story with outrageous twists and turns, involving dead cows, a mad scientist, prejudice, blood, and, of course, dead bodies. (So far all of the NHP shows have had at least one dead person.)  This production has been adapted by our director, Kat Ramsburg, to be appropriate for high school - PG-13. We recommend purchasing tickets ahead by ordering from Brown Paper Tickets or by mail Links for both are on our website: nathanhale.org/musical  Dates and times for all of the shows are: May 8, 9, 10 and 15, 16 at 7:30  and May 17 at 2:00 and 7:30  $12 adults; $6 students/seniors

All performances at Nathan Hale Performing Arts Center 10750 30th Ave NE
