The original cast recording of the GLAAD Media Award winning Off-Broadway musical, BASH'd! A Gay Rap Opera is now available to download (name your price!) at: www.bashdagayrapopera.bandcamp.com.

BASH'd! A Gay Rap Opera is an explosive musical that chronicles the tale of Jack and Dillon; two young lovers who must cope with the reality of homophobic hatred when Jack is brutally beaten, prompting Dillon to seek revenge. Narrated by fictional homo-hip-hop superstars T-Bag and Feminem, BASH'd! is told almost entirely through rap, championing equal marriage and the global LGBTQ community, whilst turning the often-homophobic musical genre on its head and returning it to its social action roots.

Written and performed by Chris Craddock and Nathan Cuckow. Music and production by Aaron Macri.

The book is available at www.talonbooks.com/books/bash-d-a-gay-rap-opera. The original cast recording of BASH'd! A Gay Rap Opera was made possible with funding provided by The Edmonton Arts Council and The City of Edmonton.
