It's High Time: Reefer Madness opens at Seattle Musical Theatre

On the heels of Seattle Musical Theatre’s successful season opener, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, comes REEFER MADNESS, a raucous musical comedy inspired by the original 1936 film of the same name.

This beloved cult classic takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the hysterical downward spiral of two “kids next door” as they experiment with the devil’s weed.

The addictive and 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. This dynamic show is sure to go straight to audiences’ heads. 

Seattle Musical Theatre’s production is the first produced in Seattle since recreational marijuana was made legal in the state of Washington. Directed by Steven Fogell, music direction by Josh Zimmerman, and choreography by Candace Larson. REEFER MADNESS plays October 22-30, 2015. Tickets ($25) are available online.

Seattle Musical Theatre’s 2015-2016 season continues with SHE LOVES ME (Dec 4-20, 2-15), 9 TO 5: THE MUSICAL (Feb 19 - March 13, 2016), and concludes with SOUTH PACIFIC (Apr 8 - May 1, 2016). Regular subscription packages (three show $100) and single tickets (starting at $20) are on sale now.

The Theatre is located at Magnuson Park, at Sand Point, 7120 62nd Ave NE, Seattle, WA 98115. 206-363-2809. Lots of free parking.
