BASH'd! A Gay Rap Opera is an explosive musical that chronicles the tale of Jack and Dillon; two young lovers who must cope with the reality of homophobic hatred when Jack is brutally beaten, prompting Dillon to seek revenge.

Narrated by fictional homo-hip-hop superstars T-Bag and Feminem, BASH'd! is told almost entirely through rap, championing equal marriage and the global LGBTQ community, whilst turning the often-homophobic musical genre on its head and returning it to its social action roots. 

Written and performed by Canadian actor/playwrights Chris Craddock and Nathan Cuckow.
Music and production by Aaron Macri.

You can stream the entire original cast recording on the BASH’d! YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvCoHys2EFE
