Meet Bud and Doug. Tonight is the most important night of their lives.

From the creators of Beetlejuice: The Musical, comes the Broadway smash hit Gutenberg! The Musical! – a love letter to the underdog, and to music theatre itself. This joyously funny and stupidly clever musical tells a story of friendship, ambition, and the kind of unshakable delusion that might just change the world – or at least get you to Broadway.

Doug and Bud are best friends. They've written a mega-musical about Johannes Gutenberg (you know, the guy who invented the printing press?) with a huge cast and lavish production values. It's been a true labour of love, and tonight they're giving it everything they've got in a one-night-only backer's audition – playing every role themselves with the aid of dozens of baseball caps, boundless enthusiasm, and their extremely hard-working piano player, Charles. Whether they're portraying monks, peasants, wenches, or integral roles like 'Friend of Gutenberg' and 'Another Woman' – Bud and Doug bring an infectious energy and relentless inventiveness to every wild twist of their 'historical' 'epic'.
