Creature from the Black Lagoon: The Musical

Creature from the Black Lagoon: The Musical was a stage musical that played at Universal Studios Hollywood between July and September 2009. It was loosely based on the 1954 film, Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Towards the end of the musical, the Creature has grown to enormous size after being hit with a spear that had been dropped in a human growth hormone. Kay, who has fallen in love with the Creature over the course of the story, decides to stay with him, only to be eaten by him after making her way up to his face on a vine.

This moment does not occur in the original film, which ends with the Creature being shot to death and Kay still alive.
