The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals

Music and Lyrics by Jeff Blim. Book by Nick & Matt Lang.

May 14 - 23, 2027

Everything seems normal in the small town of Hatchetfield—until people suddenly begin bursting into song and dance against their will. This wildly inventive horror-comedy blends sci-fi chaos, absurd humor, and musical theatre satire into a fast-paced cult favorite that lovingly pokes fun at the genre while embracing it completely. Beloved for its brilliant meta-humor, The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals blends B-movie cosmic horror with sharp satirical takes on musical theatre tropes. Audiences love the relatable main character who hates musicals, the catchiness of the songs, and the unique, high-energy performances.

  • Due to the intimacy of 2nd Stage and the proximity of the stage to the door and seating area, there will be NO LATE SEATING. Please plan ahead as the exterior doors are locked promptly at 7:30 pm. Refunds not available due to late arrival.
  • 2nd Stage is wheelchair accessible via our elevator, however, there is no space for wheelchair parking to watch the show. Patrons must be willing to transfer to a seat (steps involved) if they would like to attend a 2nd Stage production.
