Everything in Hatchetfield seemed normal until people began singing…and dancing…and now, a musical pandemic is sweeping the entire city! It’s up to Paul Matthews, an average guy who doesn’t like musicals, to unite forces with his friends, stop this musical apocalypse, and fight for humanity’s future.

The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals is a horror-comedy from StarKid Productions, the creators of A Very Potter Musical, Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier, and The Trail to Oregon! It is both a parody of and a love letter to the musical theatre genre, balancing a comedic tone with an undeniably emotional and human core.
