Ripped from the headlines of a trashy supermarket tabloid, “Bat Boy: The Musical” is a cult hit about a half-boy, half-bat discovered in a cave. Clearly not your grandmother’s musical, this ridiculously unhinged comedy treated audiences to plenty of laughs as well as memorable and inventive score that moved from rap to soft shoe in a matter of minutes.

The cast featured Charlie Hill ’12 as Bat Boy, Harry Kronfeld ’12 as Dr. Thomas Parker, Rachel Donahue ’12 as Meredith Parker, Samantha Cocuzza ’12 as Shelley Parker, Max Schmidt ’13 as Rick Taylor and Pan, Erica Atkinson ’13 as Ruthie Taylor, Austin Fernandez ’12 as Ron Taylor, Chris DeBono ’12 as Mrs. Taylor and Rev. Billy Hightower, Tyler Smith ’15 as Sheriff Reynolds, Susanna Mathews ’12 as Maggie, Casey Miller ’12 as Daisy, and Maura Hargrave-Kerns ’12 as Lorraine.

Townsfolk, ranchers, and citizens of Hope Falls were played by Pooja Aggarwal ’14, Ashley Aracena ’13, Rachel Butensky ’13, Sailesh Doraiswamy ’12, Eric Fernandez ’14, Kyle Fisher ’12, Sarina Morales ’15, Rachel Moss ’13, Kyle Movsovich ’13, Lacey Nussbaum '13, Alexa Rojek ’15, Kayla Terry ’15, and Nancy Zhu ’13.
