Making its Return to SLAC's Stage After 21-Years.

Back by popular demand, the musical comedy/horror sensation based on the “cult story” published in The Weekly World News about a half boy/half bat creature discovered in a cave near Hope Falls, West Virginia comes back to Salt Lake Acting Company after 21-years. This campy, heartfelt musical was the recipient of the Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Musical and the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Off-Broadway Musical.
