Hold the Bat Boy, Fund the Bat Boy

The production team of "Bat Boy: The Musical" is pleased to announce that we are the recipients of a Partnership Award from the Acadiana Center for the Arts, with funds provided by Lafayette Consolidated Government. We are proud to have ACA as a sponsor of our production, and thank them from the bottom of our hearts for their generous support. Links to both organizations' sites are available at the bottom of this page.

The Bat Boy is coming, and he has funding!

A Beginning

Welcome to Your Beast Inside, the official blog of Acting Unlimited, Inc's summer 2010 production of "Bat Boy: The Musical", and welcome to the world of Hope Falls, West Virginia. Please accept our hospitality...take off your shoes and stay a while. We have quite a story to tell you.

This blog is where you will be able to keep up with all of our production's announcements: auditions, production dates, fundraisers (raffles, etc.), production updates, progress reports, funny stories, and anything else the cast and crew come up with. Please visit frequently, as this exciting production will have lots of news!

Over the next few months we will be crafting a play that tells the story of the Bat Boy, made famous by the Weekly World News. You may think you know his story already, but we guarantee that you have never heard it like this.

We invite you to enter his world and hear his tale; his, and the tale of the seemingly cursed town of Hope Falls, whose citizens are thrown into turmoil by economic crisis and the arrival of the half-bat half-human child, and the tale of the Parkers, the family whose lives are forever altered when they take in the Bat Boy.

This summer, we will give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in their lives for an evening. Listen to their story and heed their warning...and don't deny your beast inside.
