Early One Evening At The Rainbow Bar & Grille
Bruce Graham
Eating Raoul
by Boyd Graham, Paul Bartel, Jed Feuer
Highlights
Synopsis
The cult film classic has new life as a zany musical.
The Blands want to open a restaurant, but they need cash.
Suppose they lure weirdos to their apartment to kill and rob them?
Press Reviews
"Quintessential… offbeat fare… Quirky, campy, even a shade kinky, it also is original, fast paced and consistently funny… It may prove the season’s most delectable treat."
— The Houston Chronicle
"The most entertaining musical about sex and cannibalism around."
— Backstage West
