Girl meets bug in this original comedy sci-fi thriller rock musical.  BEDBUGS!!! follows the hilarious and heartbreaking story of Carly, a passionate, lone exterminator hell-bent on ridding New York City of its bloodsucking infestation down to the last hideous parasite.  Set to an ‘80s inspired, melodic rock score, BEDBUGS!!! will take audiences on a journey so fantastical they won’t even realize they’re in the throes of a bedbug apocalypse!
                
BEDBUGS!!! will be presented by Dale Joan Young (The Best is Yet to Come- Drama Desk Award) with direction and co-choreography by Robert Bartley (Broadway Backwards) and music supervision by Debra Barsha (Jersey Boys).  The production will feature costume design by Philip Heckman (Forbidden Broadway: Alive and Kicking), scenic design by Clifton Chadick, lighting design by Kirk Fitzgerald, sound design by Jason T. Hurley, and wigs, hair and make-up design by Bobbie Cliffton Zlotnik (Forbidden Broadway: Alive and Kicking.) Amy Jones serves as assoc. director/ co-choreographer.
