Press Reviews "Scrapple is Boston’s dinner theater of the absurd. Inspired by Oktoberfest, Rocky Horror, The B52’s, Phil Spector,Belushi, Devo, burlesque, Talking Heads, Blondie, They Might be Giants, Run DMC, etc., etc., a 45-minuteScrapple set encapsulates the best of a high school talent show, or a Carnival cruise floor show (without Kathie Lee child labor violations)." - The Noise
