A new drug menace is about to arrive on these shores! The UK Premiere of the hit off-Broadway smash musical Reefer Madness! is coming to London!

BRIDEWELL THEATRE, LONDON

MARCH 24th - 28th 2009, 9pm

EXTRA PERFORMANCE 28th MARCH 2.30pm

A biting musical satire of the 1936 black-and-white propaganda film of the same name, Reefer Madness! will - for the first time - introduce unsuspecting Brits to the harrowing tale of Jimmy Harper: a fresh-faced, innocent, all-American high school boy lured into the dangerous world of marijuana. Guided along the way by a colourful cast of characters including George Washington, Lady Liberty and even Jesus himself, will Jimmy successfully navigate this seedy underworld and live to tell the tale?

Reefer Madness! was a smash-hit off-Broadway, and was transformed into a Showtime television movie starring Neve Campbell, Alan Cumming and Kristen Bell in 2005, winning an Emmy™ award for music and lyrics.

This high-energy, high-camp and highly addictive musical romp is presented by flytheatre in a nightly double-bill with the raucously hilarious new musical Aristophanes' Clouds.

One whiff and you'll be hooked!

Reefer Madness! The Musical has music by Dan Studney and lyrics by Kevin Murphy. Reefer Madness! is directed by Christopher Adams.

This non-professional production is presented by arrangement with Josef Weinberger Limited on behalf of R&H Theatricals (rnh.com).
