The show is an interactive comedic rock opera and satire based on a fictional production of the same name featured in the television series Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The production is structured in 4-5 segments of performance detailed below. (Timings are approximate and may vary slightly). [This is an adapted and expanded performance of The Nightman Cometh originally written and devised by Charlie Day, Rob McElhenny, and Glenn Howerton.] 1. A pre-show interactive experience with cast members welcoming the audience and the waitress/bartender character appearing behind the bar. [Until the audience arrives and settles 30-40 minutes] 2. The On-Stage Performance begins, with an onstage performance of the rehearsals. [20 minutes] 3. Costume Change Interval (15-20 minutes) 4. The Nightman Cometh is introduced and performed. [25 minutes] 5. A DJ set hosted by the characters Dayman and Nightman. [60 minutes] The plot focuses on a group of people who are recruited by their friend to produce a terrible musical with the intention of wooing an unwitting waitress/bartender whom the plays director has an unhealthy obsession with. This, of course, goes terribly wrong with the cursed play proving to be unclear and troubling in its content, narrative, and characters. The directors sweet intentions become crude in their presentation. (A process shown through pre-performance video logs depicting the productions downfall in rehearsal projected onto the set before the main show). These factors result in the director rebelling against his actors, including his own song in a final attempt to capture the heart of the bartender, this cements the directors failure and the bartender leaves vowing never to see the director again. The shows finale features all characters returning onstage with an audience singalong reprise of Dayman (the shows main song). Characters.
