I think there is absolutely nothing unoriginal about this project. Created by Tyler Tafolla, who did it all, book, lyrics, music, and is directing the piece, which in 2018, had a showcase of some of the songs written for the musical, and only one made it into the final version. Last year, there was a staged reading at the City Heights Performance Annex. But truly, it took Tafolla 10 years to bring “Dead Moose” to full production. 

I did not know the story of this musical. I knew the controversy surrounding it and the local San Diego hullabaloo over miscasting some years ago.
