Reefer Madness: The Musical

Reefer Madness: The Musical

Book by Kevin Murphy and Dan Studney / Music by Dan Studney / Lyrics by Kevin Murphy

Directed by Shannon Peterson

Musical Satire – Irreverent – Campy

Inspired by the original 1936 film of the same name, this raucous musical comedy takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the hysteria caused when clean-cut kids fall prey to marijuana, leading them on a hysterical downward spiral filled with evil jazz music, sex, and violence. You won’t be able to resist the spoofy fun of Reefer Madness. The addictive, clever musical numbers range from big Broadway-style showstoppers to swing tunes like “Down at the Ol’ Five and Dime” and the Vegas-style “Listen to Jesus, Jimmy,” featuring J.C. Himself leading a chorus of showgirl angels. Reefer Madness is a highly stylized and satirical political commentary that will leave you wanting more.

Duration: 2 hours plus a 15-minute intermission
