Reefer Madness
Book and lyrics by Kevin Murphy, music by Dan Studney

Reefer Madness is a hilarious musical satire based on the 1936 propaganda film of the same name. This over-the-top tale of teenage Jimmy's fall from grace is set against the canvas of the 1930s ideal. This twisted, nothing sacred romp mixes quick laughs with memorable songs. A cast of colorful, engaging characters and the story of just how dangerous the "demon weed" can be results in nothing short of madness, reefer madness!

Show Dates:
May 11, 12, 18, 19, 20*, 25, 26, 27* and June 1, 2 Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m.
