Synopsis: Lock up your lettuce and guard your greens! A floppy-eared bunny with mysterious habits hops into this spine-tingling new musical. One dark and stormy night, the Monroe family returns from the movies with an orphaned rabbit they found under their seats – a strange little creature with sharp fangs who sleeps all day and prowls at night. Soon, the vegetables in the house are drained of color, turning ghostly white. Coincidence… or is Bunnicula a vampire? When the bunny disappears, Chester the cat and Harold the dog set off on a daring quest to uncover the truth.
