Team StarKidWARNING: 'Twisted' contains adult language.
From the creators of 'A Very Potter Musical' and 'Holy Musical B@man!', comes 'Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier.' Hop on your flying carpet, because this musical parody retells the classic tale of Aladdin... from the villain's point of view! Long ago in a Magic Kingdom, one misunderstood Royal Vizier will go on a quest to save his city from its bumbling sultan, an invading prince, and the most notorious thief to ever live! With the help of the Kingdom's free-spirited, teenage Princess, the Vizier must find a magical lamp containing a wish-granting Djinn (who's really funny, by the way) and defeat the city's most-wanted criminal... Aladdin! This musical adventure celebrates and lovingly pokes fun at everyone's favorite series of hand-drawn, animated films.
'Twisted' features story & script by Matt Lang, Nick Lang, and Eric Kahn Gale. With music by A.J. Holmes and lyrics by Kaley McMahon. It is directed by Brian Holden.

Alright, boys! Go long! The stage is set and Professor Henry Hidgens (Jeff Blim) has been waiting in the wings. When the Starlight Theater agrees to produce Henry's new musical as part of their local writers' workshop, they get a show stopping number that's more than they bargained for. Now the people of Hatchetfield are up to their ass in shit, and five-o-clock can't come soon enough!
Based on the musical-within-the-musical from 'The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals,' 'Workin' Boys' is a 28 minute short film made as a Kickstarter perk for the 2019 StarKid 10niversary crowdfunding campaign. While only accessible to 10niversary KS backers for a time, 'Workin' Boys' was unlocked as a public YouTube video when the 'Cinderella's Castle' Kickstarter campaign reached a funding stretch goal of $425K. Now everyone can enjoy 'Workin' Boys' whenever they like. So it's time to open the curtain and KILL the reviews!
'Workin' Boys' features a script by Nick & Matt Lang, songs by @jeffblim , a score by Matt Dahan, choreography by Lauren Lopez, and special make-up FX by Gabriela Vega. It stars...
Hidgens - @jeffblim Hailey (who plays Marge & Secretary #2), and Grace Chasity - Angela Giarratana Meg (who also plays Mrs. Cloverleaf) - Kim Whalen Eve (who also plays Secretary #1) - Bryce Charles Sue (who also plays Secretary #3) - Virginia Vass Ruth (who plays Secretary #4), and Linda - Lauren Lopez Zoey (who plays Henrietta) - @MariahCasillas Bill, and Cop - Corey Dorris Ted - Joey Richter Gerald - Dylan Saunders Richie - @jonmatteson Officer Bailey - @curtmega Matt Dahan Paul Gabriel and @emkaysmiles

Itโs been years in the making, but โWorkinโ Boysโ is finally on its way! The 30-minute short film (originally promised as a SK 10niversary Kickstarter perk back in 2019) is now available for rent as part of 'The Hatchetfield Halloween Party: A Spooky Livestream Celebration.โ This pay-to-view digital event features cast & crew members from every Hatchetfield show, and include a โNerdy Prudesโ Talkback, a Hatchetfield Trivia Game, the โWorkinโ Boysโ screening & a talkback, plus a discussion of/sneak-peek at the possible future of the Hatchetfield series! The party streamed live on October 13th, but digital tickets to the recording will be available to rent until Halloween here: starkid.vhx.tv/products/the-hatchetfield-halloween-party-digital-ticket
Then, โWorkinโ Boysโ will be FREE to view for all SK 10niversary Kickstarter Backers starting Monday, October 30th (just in time for Halloween). On that day, 10niversary Backers will be sent a link to the short so they can watch it as many times as they like, whenever they like.
To be clear, SK 10niversary Kickstarter Backers will NOT need to buy a ticket to the Hatchetfield Halloween Party to receive the FREE link to see โWorkinโ Boysโ on October 30th. BUT being a SK 10niversary Kickstarter Backer doesnโt automatically get you a ticket to the Hatchetfield Halloween Party (which includes a three-hour block of activities, not just 'Workin' Boys'). If youโd like to tune into that event, youโll be able to purchase a ticket here: starkid.vhx.tv/products/the-hatchetfield-halloween-party-digital-ticket
Based on the musical-within-the-musical from 'The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals,' 'Workin' Boys' tells the story of Professor Henry Hidgens (played by Jeff Blim) who sets out to produce his dream musical at the Starlight Theater, and things donโt go according to plan. Now one manโs dream will become one townโs nightmare. Hatchetfield is up to its ass in shit, and five-o-clock canโt come soon enough!
Filled with show stopping numbers and a cast of familiar faces, โWorkinโ Boysโ is a horror-comedy short boasting 5 new songs by Jeff Blim, a script by Nick & Matt Lang, a score by Matt Dahan, choreography by Lauren Lopez, and special make-up FX by Gabriela Vega. It stars Jeff Blim, Mariah Rose Faith Casillas, Bryce Charles, Matt Dahan, Corey Dorris, Paul Gabriel, Angela Giarratana, Lauren Lopez, Jon Matteson, Curt Mega, Joey Richter, Dylan Saunders, Virginia Vass, Kim Whalen, and Mary Kate Wiles. It was edited by Matt Lang, and directed by Nick Lang.

Nerdy Prudes Must Die is a teen-slasher comedy about a group of geeks and their ghostly tormentor from the creators of The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals and Black Friday. When the biggest losers at Hatchetfield High unwittingly complete an ancient, evil ritual, they unleash an all- powerful, angry spirit with a grudge against nerds.
