![]() Bat Boy tells the tale of a half boy/half bat creature found in a cave near Hope Falls, West Virginia. After attacking a local girl, he is captured and brought into the care and custody of the local veterinarian and his family, who teach him civilized ways and try and integrate him into polite society. But is the town ready for this boy who forces them to confront their deepest fears? Read the complete synopsis. For an even more detailed look at the show, browse through the lyrics. | ![]() | ![]() The story of the bat child found in the cave first appeared in the World Weekly News, and quickly caught the imagination of a number of readers - not to mention Laurence O'Keefe. :-) Read a bit more about the 'real' bat child, and then see how it became a musical. |
