Just like getting a musical on last Halloween weekend, getting another Star Kid musical on Valentine's Day weekend is certainly a pleasant surprise.
The Trail to Oregon is an uproarious parody of the classic PC game,
The Oregon Trail, complete with a farm family with names like "Crab Hole" and "Mouthface", a crappy wagon pulled by a deformed oxen, and all of the hilariously messed up things that happen along the trail. Check it out if you love musicals, simulation and/or Manifest Destiny. Wait what?
Also check out their last musical which had the thesis: Podracing is the only thing Anakin Skywalker was ever good at.
And
remember to check out the incredible Sci-Fi film parody, filled with
bits from Starship Troopers to Bug's Life, from Starkid:
Also, make sure to check out the definite must-see for fans of
Batman, fans of Starkid, or fans of musicals is "Holy Musical B@man!"
their latest and most awesome show. You can watch the whole thing by
clicking the link below.
But my favorite is probably the amazing Disney parody, with a focus on Aladdin, that they wowed their fans with last year:
Or
if you want to go back to the original hits and some Harry Potter, check out A Very Potter Musical and/or
its Sequel. They have a number of other productions that are definitely
worth seeking out, as well.
