Bat Boy - The Musical

Bat Boy - The Musical comes to Buffalo, a dark comedy rock musical about a half-bat, half-human creature found in a cave in West Virginia. The show follows Edgar, as he's named, attempting to integrate into society, facing both acceptance and prejudice. It's a cult favorite known for its quirky humor, satirical edge, and surprisingly poignant story, blending horror tropes with sharp social commentary. This production runs on Friday, October 9, 2026, at the Smith Theatre within Shea's Performing Arts Center. The Smith Theatre offers a more intimate setting than the main Shea's stage, well-suited for a character-driven musical like this. It's a good pick for anyone who appreciates offbeat theater, rock musicals, or stories that challenge expectations.
