From Here to Queerternia

If the title of the new stage production Muscle-Man vs. Skeleton Man: A Love Story ... the musical doesn't tip you off, it doesn't take much to glean its inspiration from this plot synopsis:

"Evil lurks in the mythical land of Queerternia, a peaceful territory full of glitter and dreams. Skeleton Man is on a rampage, terrorizing citizens. No one can stop him … until Sorceress grants Prince Hector special powers, transforming him from a puny weakling, into a heroic, powerful Muscle-Man. As Skeleton Man and Muscle-Man battle to rule Queerternia, they realize there is a thin line between love and hate. Can two sworn enemies find happiness in the sculpted arms of one another? Is peace possible for Queerternia?"

What else is there left to say, except for a few prayers that this sure-to-be-a-hoot show makes it to Off Broadway soon.
