A wild musical appears!

“BALLS” is an action-packed immersive experience about the MONSTERS we collect and the FIGHTS we choose to fight. Be the very first to start a “NEW GAME” in this one-of-a-kind extravaganza, overflowing with 8-bit bops, improvised battles, and 151 original Collectabuddies.

MONSTERS WERE SCARY. AND THE PROFESSOR WAS SCARED. So he squished ‘em down into little balls, and created a safer world: where monsters are pets – and pets do what they’re told. But when these “Collectabuddies” begin to BITE BACK, the Professor and his piece-of-sh*t grandson are forced to battle their past conceptions of right and wrong to save the game they helped create.

“Project we love!”
-Kickstarter

“Turn your hat sideways and make your pets fight in this hilarious…unique interactive experience.”
-Games Press

“I can not wait to see this musical”
-“Video Game Journalist”

“…from beginning to end: every performance is a new adventure.”
-Broadway World

Created by Brandon Zelman (“Who’s that Pokémon? Podcast”, “Cat in the Hat Podcast”) and Harrison Bryan (“A Hanukkah Carol, or GELT TRIP! The Musical”, “NY Innovative Theatre Award” Winner), “BALLS” features new music by an Elite Team of award-winning composers spanning Broadway, Hollywood, The West End, and TikTok, with an evocative score built around nostalgia. Composers include: Lena Gabrielle (“Six”, “Emojiland”), Pippa Cleary (“My Son’s a Queer”, ”The Great British Bake Off Musical”), Joriah Kwamé (“Little Miss Perfect”), Aaron Kenny (“The Little Mermaid”, “A Hanukkah Carol”), and Grace Yurchuk (“Caesar: The Musical”). Additional Music by Matthew Ryan Hunter (“NBC”) with Orchestrations, Arrangements, and Music Supervision by Lena Gabrielle.

Starring…

Teresa Attridge (“Avenue Q”, “Fun Home”) as “The Rival”

Harrison Bryan (“Hand to God”, “Handy Award” Winner) as “Warlordturtle”

Katie Luke (“Bandstand”, “Hairspray”) as “Spittle”

Ebony Deloney (“Hairspray”, “Beautiful”) as “Fat’Chance”

Kurt Cruz (“Asian AF”, “UCB”) as “Pocket Pedia”
