NEW YORK TIMES CRITIC PICK!

What happens when a lonely exterminator- hell-bent on avenging her mother's bedbug-related death- tries to eradicate all bedbugs from NYC? Mass mutation and mayhem!!! Not since Little Shop and Rocky Horror has a sci-fi musical rocked audiences with such an electric, tune-filled score, and over-the-top performances!!!

The New York Times:

"A theatrical blast of fresh air, Bedbugs!!! is an audacious rock-'n'-roll concoction that never stops surprising. The sci-fi slapstick tradition of Little Shop of Horrors and The Rocky Horror Show is alive and well and, now, six-legged."
