BEDBUGS!!! Plays ATA’s Chernuchin Theatre, Now thru 11/4

Girl meets bug in this original comedy sci-fi thriller rock musical.

Set to an '80s inspired, melodic rock score, BEDBUGS!!! will take audiences on an journey so fantastical they won't even realize they're in the throes of a bedbug apocalypse!
