Rhubarb is the author of four musicals, two of which deal heavily in anthropomorphic themes. The most familiar one to furry audiences is ''Julie Bunny Must Die!'', which he brought to [[Wild Nights 2011]].<ref name="OklaconF"/> ''Julie'' tells the story of a struggling independent [[artist|graphic artist]]. He is accompanied on stage by four other actors who play dual roles, of his [[comic book]] [[character]]s and people in his [[real life|real world]]. One of these characters, LaserWolf, is a [[furry]] complete with a partial [[fursuit]] which the actor dons onstage at various points in the story. The LaserWolf character was designed by [[Mary Mouse]] and the suit was created by [[Sophie Cabra]].<br />

A production of ''Julie Bunny'' was performed at [[Oklacon 2011]],<ref>[http://oklacon.com/Event 2011 Events] on the Oklacon website. Retrieved September 20, 2011</ref> and Rhubarb served as [[Guest of Honour]] for [[Wild Nights 2012]]<ref>[http://www.furaffinity.net/user/rhubarbcub/ RhubarbCub's profile] on Fur Affinity. Retrieved September 20, 2011</ref>, where he brought a staged reading of ''Fosgate: Ferret Loan Officer'', his newest work. ''Fosgate'' is a broad spoof of ''The Merchant Of Venice'' by William Shakespeare; five of the six main characters and two bit parts are portrayed as anthropomorphic animals. Following Wild Nights, a fully realized production of ''Fosgate'' was presented at the Orlando International Fringe Theater Festival in May 2012. It was the only show in the festival to simultaneously win the Patron's Pick (most tickets sold in a venue) and make the Orlando Sentinel's top 10 list.<br />
