The Lost Boys

Vampire musicals don't have a great track record on Broadway—hello and goodbye, Dance of the Vampires and Dracula and Lestat!—but this adaptation of the 1987 coming-of-fangs horror comedy aims to break that curse. The book is by David Hornsby and Chris Hoch, and the original score is by the indie-rock band the Rescues. Michael Arden (Maybe Happy Ending) directs a cast that promisingly includes LJ Benet and rising star Benjamin Pajak as teenage brothers in immortal peril, Shoshanna Bean as their mom, Paul Alexander Nolan as her boss and Ali Louis Bourzgui as a bloodsucking baddie.
