Editor's note

Team StarKid's viral musicals and fan-favorite songs

A college theater group turned viral sensation, known for parody musicals and catchy, humorous songs.

For a quick sense of their style, try 'Granger Danger' or 'Sami/Harry (Apocalyptour)', they're funny, a little messy, and full of energy.

They started with 'A Very Potter Musical' in 2009, a Harry Potter parody that spread online and built a dedicated fanbase. Songs like 'Granger Danger' and 'Goin' Back To Hogwarts' mix pop culture jokes with surprisingly tight melodies. Their work shows how a DIY college project can grow into a lasting musical comedy presence.

It began as University of Michigan students making campus shows, then 'A Very Potter Musical' went viral. They kept producing full-length musicals like 'Holy Musical B@man!' in 2012 and 'The Trail to Oregon!' in 2015. Later, they faced plagiarism issues with 'The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals' in 2019 but kept making new material.

Archive material and source history

Team StarKid started as a group of University of Michigan students making short musical comedies for campus shows. In 2009, they posted 'A Very Potter Musical,' a Harry Potter parody that went viral and built them a loyal following. Their songs like 'Kick It Up a Notch' and 'Goin' Back To Hogwarts' mix catchy melodies with self-deprecating humor and pop culture references.

They've put out several full-length musicals including 'Me and My Dick' in 2010, 'Holy Musical B@man!' in 2012, and 'The Trail to Oregon!' in 2015. Their live shows became known for high-energy choreography and audience participation. Some original members like Darren Criss went on to other projects, but the group kept producing new material.

In 2019, they faced plagiarism accusations regarding their musical 'The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals,' which led to an apology and the show being taken down from their website. They've continued making work since, with songs like 'Twisted' and '1001 Nights' showing their blend of musical comedy and storytelling.
