Nerdy Prudes Must Die

Music and Lyrics by Jeff Blim, Book by Nick & Matt Lang, Orchestrations by Matt Dahan, Originally produced by StarKid Productions 

Is High School killing you?/Teenage hormones. Questionable morals. Multiple homicides./Teenage angst has never had such a high body count./Music. Murder. Mayhem. A whole lot of unresolved trauma.

Welcome to Hatchetfield. A seemingly ordinary American town where high school is hell, popularity is currency, and being a teenager is already a nightmare without someone trying to murder you. When a group of social outcasts decide to knock the school's resident bully a taste of his own medicine. Their seemingly harmless prank goes spectacularly, catastrophically wrong. 

Unfortunately for everyone involved, death doesn't necessarily mean the end. Especially when the deceased has a serious grudge and absolutely no intention of letting it go. What follows is a gloriously unhinged descent into teenage hormones, questionable decisions, religious hypocrisy, supernatural revenge, and an alarming body count. Friendships are tested, secrets are exposed, and surviving senior year suddenly seems a lot less important than surviving the next five minutes.

Part slasher film, part high school musical, and entirely inappropriate, Nerdy Prudes Must Die takes everything you remember about adolescence and asks one simple question: what if High School could actually kill you?

From the wonderfully disturbed minds of StarKid Productions, Midnight Social brings its own deliciously twisted take to this cult horror-comedy musical. Expect killer songs, outrageous characters, a healthy disregard for good taste, and just enough heart beneath the bloodshed to remind you that even the biggest misfits deserve a happy ending.
