Bat Child Found In Cave! The story of a half-boy, half-bat creature was but one of the fantastic stories created by the tabloid the Weekly World News. This musical comedy gives Bat Boy the origin story he deserves. What happens after Bat Boy is discovered and brought to the home of the town veterinarian where he is taught to act like a human? When this outsider is blamed for mysterious deaths in town, we are reminded of the difficulties of being different, fitting in, and doing what’s right.
