Geeks! The Musical!

Book & Lyrics by Thomas J. Misuraca
Music by Ruth Judkowitz

Directed by Rick Hamilton
Choreographed by Mary Lauren
Musical Direction/Arrangements by Rocco Vitacco

The New York premiere of Geeks! ran Off-Off Broadway at the Richmond Shepard Theater. It was produced by John Lant and Samantha L. Vella for Write Act Repertory Eastside.


Geeks! The Musical! follows the adventures of a gaggle of geeks through the San Diego Comic Book/Sci-Fi Convention. Will the geek boy find true love and a mint copy of Batman 92? Will the artist and Goth girl sell their advant-garde comic? Will the has-been sci-fi actor get cast in the remake of his old TV show? These questions and more will be answered as they sing, dance and debate if Batman could beat Spider-Man in a fight.

Geeks! The Musical! has had several hit runs in California, including productions in Los Angeles and San Diego. I was proud to direct the New York City premiere of the show. The authors were delighted at the fresh new approach we brought to our production, while remaining true to their original vision.
