This raucous musical comedy inspired by the original 1936 film of the same name (long before there were dispensaries and retail shops), 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!
REEFER MADNESS is presented through special arrangement with R&H Theatricals: www.rnh.com
