Bloody, Surprising, Gutsy, Hilarious, Bold

See it if Like the love child of Little Shop, A Strange Loop, and Saved while still being singularly, utterly itself. I loved it.

Don't see it if The definition of not-for-everyone. If you can’t laugh your way through a half-dozen castrations, perhaps stay away. This goes for broke.

Quirky, Great writing, Masterful, Great staging, Great singing

See it if You love musical theatre, mixed with I bit of comedy horror & a message. It may be off-broadway, but production values outdo some mainstream

Don't see it if You’re easily offended, otherwise see this whilst you can. Good songs, costume changes, make members, pyrotechnics - what more can you ask!

Raunchy, Outrageous, Funny

See it if you like clever, over-the-top-crazy musicals that are also hilarious and fun with great staging, cool cast and an unhinged Steven Pasquale.

Don't see it if you're averse to simulated sex & violence scenes, don't like loud music, get easily offended, or not in the mood to go along on a wild ride.

Adult, Fun, Raunchy, Funny, Great singing

See it if You want a new, gross, fun, campy romp. Akin to Little Shop and other “horror” musical comedies. Great songs and talent! Sick!

Don't see it if You’re wanting to take the kids or are looking for something deep and profound. This is for fun and for the horror fans!
