Bubble Boy is a musical with music and lyrics by Cinco Paul and book by Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio, based on the 2001 Touchstone Pictures' film Bubble Boy. Like the movie, it tells the story of Jimmy Livingston, a boy born without immunities who is forced to live in a plastic bubble room. Thematically, the musical explores the idea that we all have our "bubbles" which prevent us from being all we can be, and that we need to break out of them.
The musical's first professional production opened November 6, 2013 at Hamilton Stage in Rahway, New Jersey.[1] An original cast recording was released by Ghostlight Records on July 14, 2017,[2] and the show was subsequently published by Dramatists Play Service and became available for professional and nonprofessional licensed productions.[3]
