"Like the 1936 film, 'Reefer Madness' on stage smells like a cult classic." Hollywood Reporter

"A delirious romp, which at its best, reaches highs of intoxicating goofiness." USA Today


The joint is jumpin’! 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. It’s addictive, it’s fun, it’s potheads gone wild!!!!!!

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