Magnet’s next big musical event is almost here…GAY BOMB: THE MUSICAL! GAY BOMB is a comedy inspired by the real life plans of the U.S. military to build a bomb that would make their enemies gay. The show is a cautionary tale set in a not-to-distant America that is a ”xenophobic, homophobic wet dream”. This timely political piece is not only topical but extremely on point, leaving no stereotype unscathed. GAY BOMB: THE MUSICAL premiers at The Magnet Theater on Friday May 4th at 8:30, and plays on select Fridays and Mondays through June.
Much like previous Magnet Musical Event NIGHTFALL ON MIRANGA ISLAND, tickets are limited and will go fast!!! Tickets go on sale right….NOW. Get yours NOW here. Make sure you’re there for an opening night extravaganza you won’t want to miss.
Directed by Michael Martin, with music by Frank Spitznagel and book and lyrics by Chris Friden and Steve Whyte.
Starring: Andrew Fafoutakis, Dreagn Foltz, Ben Jones, Michael Lutton, Jen Sanders, TJ Mannix, Oscar Montoya, Dave Tomczak and Woody Fu!

What is Megawatt?
Megawatt is a weekly showcase of the Magnet’s signature house teams! Six of the teams perform every Wednesday and two musical teams perform every Tuesday. All Megawatt performers have graduated from the Magnet Training Center and are lead by a Magnet assigned director. Megawatt teams perform a variety of forms, styles, and structures – all of which are fueled by hilarious improvisers playing at the top of their intelligence.
How can I participate?
To be considered for a Megawatt team, you must complete all six levels of the Magnet Training Program. Likewise, for Musical Megawatt, you must complete all three musical improv core classes. After completion, you become eligible for an invitation to audition. Auditions are held periodically throughout the year. As you complete Level Six, you will find out more information about the audition process and the next audition scheduled.
