Cat Kid Comic Club: the Musical

November 1–17, 2024
Newmark Theatre

“THOUGHTS AND ART AND WORDS ALL TEAM UP TO SHOW THE WORLD WHAT YOU CAN DREAM UP! ”

Cat Kid and Molly Pollywog have started an epic club to teach 21 rambunctious baby frogs how to make their own comics! Their fishy father Flippy is overjoyed that his kids will learn to unleash their creativity, but when the frogs’ constant bickering and outrageous imaginations send their comics comically off the rails, Flippy flips out! Will the club survive? Will the frogs ever get along? And will creativity finally save the day? All will be answered in this madcap musical based on Dav Pilkey’s irreverently hilarious book series.

This hilarious musical adaptation of Dav Pilkey’s Dog Man spin-off series, Cat Kid Comic Club, is written by Kevin Del Aguila and Brad Alexander—the team that brought you DOG MAN: THE MUSICAL!
