Based on a story in The Weekly World News,
BAT BOY: THE
MUSICAL is a musical comedy/horror show about a half
boy/half bat creature who is discovered in a cave near Hope
Falls, West Virginia. For lack of a better solution, the local
sheriff brings Bat Boy to the home of the town veterinarian,
Dr. Parker, where he is eventually accepted as a member of the
family and taught to act like a "normal" boy by the
veterinarian's wife, Meredith, and teenage daughter, Shelley.
Bat Boy is happy with his new life, but when he naively tries
to fit in with the narrow-minded people of Hope Falls, they
turn on him, prodded by the machinations of Dr. Parker, who
secretly despises Bat Boy. Shelley and Bat Boy, who have fallen
in love, run away together from the ignorant townfolk and have
a blissful coupling in the woods, but their happiness is
shattered when Meredith arrives and reveals a secret. Soon the
entire town arrives and hears the shocking story of Bat Boy's
unholy origin. --
