Theatre Wesleyan will present "Bat Boy: The Musical" at the Thad Smotherman Theatre at Texas Wesleyan University (1205 Binkley Street, 76105) for one weekend only, April 20-23. 

"Bat Boy" is a rock musical comedy/horror show based on a 1992 Weekly World News story about a half-boy, half-bat who grew up living in an isolated cave in the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia. With a beat-driven rock score that pays homage to the rock musicals of the late '60s and early '70s, "Bat Boy" provides a compelling theatrical metaphor for the dangers of prejudice, intolerance and provincialism. The show, directed by Joe Allen Brown, is recommended for mature audiences with a PG-13 rating.
