"Hilarious, Ingenious, Inventive” - New York Times
“Fabulously entertaining and engaging...unleashes the power of creativity, inspiration, and perspective!” - DC Theater Arts
Cat Kid and Molly Pollywog have started an epic club to teach 21 rambunctious baby frogs how to make their own comics! Their fishy father Flippy is overjoyed that his kids will learn to unleash their creativity, but when the frogs’ constant bickering and outrageous imaginations send their comics comically off the rails, Flippy flips out! Will the club survive? Will the frogs ever get along? And will creativity finally save the day? All will be answered in this madcap musical based on Dav Pilkey’s irreverently hilarious book series. Recommended for ages 5+.
Cat Kid Comic Club: The Musical features a book and lyrics by Kevin Del Aguila and music by Brad Alexander, the same team that brought you Dog Man: The Musical! Direction and choreography is by Marlo Hunter. Set design is by Cameron Anderson, costume design is by Jen Caprio, lighting design is by David Lander, co-sound design is by Scott Stauffer and Jesse Desrosiers, puppet design/ fabrication is by AchesonWalsh Studios, and orchestrations are by Brad Alexander.
