Turkeys! The Musical has been performed for six Novembers at Zombie Joe's Underground Theater in North Hollywood, each time to sold-out crowds, standing ovations, and rave reviews. This isn't a first draft. This is a tried and true theatrical ride ready for the next level.
"Turkeys! is hands down my favorite musical! The songs are equal parts hilarious and heartfelt. I can't stop singing the opening number, which is fine, because I don't want to stop" - Jennette McCurdy
"A musical I will return to again and again, year after year. Like a cartoon brought to life, Turkeys! is a Thanksgiving feast for the soul!" - Ben Kurzrock (Writer for Spongebob Squarepants)
"Subcultures collide through shtick-like classic Broadway musical song and dance. Thanksgiving will never feel the same after seeing Turkeys! the Musical and you will want to see it every Thanksgiving season."
