Act I Scene I: The curtain lifts on a darkened stage. The figure of a very fat man is barely visible silhouetted against a computer monitor. His back is to the audience. Blue lights come on and illuminate half the stage. Shelves full of anime figurines line the walls, and his floor is a barely navigable maze of laundry and pizza boxes. With his back still to the audience, the fat man begins to type in an exaggerated fashion. He speaks the words he is typing aloud as he types them. "Have you heard about this new website?" The left half of the stage is illuminated, another room in similar condition to the first is revealed, only the man sitting there is skinny and pale. His voice can also be heard as he types his response. "New website? What's it about?" 1st Man: "It's a comedy website, they post humor articles and funny pictures and stuff." 2nd Man: "Like the Onion?" 1st Man: "Sort of, only this site also has a forum where members can contribute their own original material." 2nd Man: "Sounds like fun, maybe I should join." 1st Man: "That's what I thought, too, but then I found out it's not that simple." 2nd Man: "What do you mean?" 1st Man: "Membership isn't free. It costs ten dollars to join." 2nd Man: "Ten dollars? Wow, that site really sounds like Something Awful!" The two figures get up from their chairs in unison and the stage is fully illuminated. They turn to the audience as the music rises for the first song. Some highlighted musical numbers: Something Awful dot com really is something awful Goons, Goons, Goons! (normal people complaining) All Your Base (Remix of Newgrounds version) Shmorky's Song (Sung entirely in Shmorky's Gilbert Gottfried voice) For the Glory of Goonfleet (in the style of a military march) Gas Chamber Dirge (The chorus is "Gas thread, Ban OP") You can never beat Uve Boll! (Uve Boll boast song) Come on, everybody, Let's Play! (Full cast, big number) PYF lines and songs from SA: The Musical!

If you cough loudly or talk during the show, an usher comes to escort you out, but you're allowed back in after a few minutes. If you heckle the actors you are thrown out of the theaters, but you are allowed to buy a new ticket and come back in.

The usher with the nametag Aatrek is actually an actor, and he makes a big deal about escorting children to their seats. During the show, the police show up to arrest him.

*Lowtax stands at a street corner selling forums memberships as if they were patent medicines. He has a straw hat and patters with the audience* *He is jostled by a rude passer-by and falls to the ground* *A kindly street urchin helps him to his feet* Lowtax: Thanks, kid. Say, what's your name? Urchin (in Gilbert Gottfried voice): They call me Shmorky, mister! Lowtax: "Shmorky?" Why do they call you that? Shmorky: Because I shmorks! *Makes shmorking sound*

Somethingawful: The Musical Trivia: * The giant fedora set piece that gets lowered from the ceiling in the third act is the largest fedora ever constructed and weighed over 2000lbs! * The show was plagued by sound problems for the entirety of its run because the microphones kept picking up the rustling sounds from the actors' neckbeards * The stage at the Brooks Atkinson theatre had to be specially reinforced to support the weight of the actors. * The "LOLCATS" song is just the song "Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer" from Cats only with some of the words changed.
