Bat Boy: The Musical is a contemporary musical that swings between wacky and silly to grotesque and tragic. According to the director, Associate Professor Ilona Pierce, it tells a story of prejudice and acceptance, love and taboos, and the animal inside all of us. Featuring music and lyrics by Laurence O'Keefe and book by Keythe Farley and Brian Flemming, Bat Boy: The Musical was presented by Hofstra's Department of Drama and Dance at the John Cranford Adams Playhouse, October 17-26, 2014. The musical featured Anna Holmes who played Mrs. Taylor.
