"What if your family was thrown together suddenly under the same roof to deal with an alarming, unexplainable and downright awkward situation?" asks Trouble press notes. "What if you had a single foot, two eye stalks, and ten thousand teeth... on your tongue? In this comedic musical, inspired by Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, Doug Gregory transforms from a healthy, happy young man into a giant slug (with some human features), and his family must face the consequences."



The Shop Theater at CAP21 is located on the sixth floor of 18 West 18th Street. For tickets, priced $18, call (212) 352-3101 or visit www.CAP21.org.
