BALLS: The Monster-Catchin' Musical Comédy Sets World Premiere At Caveat NYC

BALLS: The Monster-Catchin' Musical Comédy" will stage its first live performances at CAVEAT NYC, the acclaimed Lower East Side comedy venue that "champions nerdy, funny art - and sells cheap drinks."

Nintendo Life describes "BALLS" as "a musical comedy about P-o-k-é-m-o-n *monster-catchin'*. Apologies for the slip up there." It's an action-packed immersive satire that follows a neurotic NPC Professor and his piece-of-s**t grandson (your rival) as they battle the morality of catchin' Collectabuddies to save the game they helped create. This one-of-a-kind interactive extravaganza overflows with 8-bit bops, and improvised battles - and it's different every night! So grab your empty backpack, and say bye to your mom: a world of dreams and adorable violence awaits!

Tickets are very limited; on sale now for the April 18th (7pm) and April 19th (4pm & 9:30pm) World Premiere performances. The show will also have live-stream ticketing available as a commitment to their fans worldwide.
