The
Guy Who Didn't
Like Musicals is a horror-comedy musical released on December 24th of
2018, released by Team Starkid. The musical doesn'
t stick to a
set classification of
music, with a wide array of genres presented in a mere one hour and 52 minutes. It hosts a slew of on-stage special effects, and with songs and composition by Team Starkid member Jeff Blim, it is definitely something you'll want to look into.
The musical itself is a bit of a parody of the musical theatre genre, with pokes at "I Want" songs, character motivations, and more.
It covers the story of a man named Paul, who has a great distaste for musicals. His life carries on as
normal until a meteor crashes into a theater in downtown Hachetfield, the setting of the show. This meteor begins to transform
people from everyday citizens; to singing-dancing zombie hiveminds, that are out to make you join them, at any cost.
The show can be found on
YouTube, completely free.
The show carries a large degree of swearing and adult humor, but is certainly a recommended pick for many. You can find more about the show on the Starkid Fandom Wiki, but beware spoilers!
