New Century Theater Open - Reefer Madness


Hennepin Theater Trust's Century Theater will be showing Reefer Madness all February!

What timing too, with the Marijuana legalization in Washington this year, it's about time we reflect on the "perils of marijuana" in this tongue-in-cheek musical comedy.  Directed by Steven Meerdink, MMT’s artistic director, it is the first production in the new partnership between Hennepin Theatre Trust and Minneapolis Musical Theatre. Inspired by the original 1936 film, this satirical morality tale is a depiction of clean-cut kids lured into a hysterical downward spiral by the evil weed, jazz, sex and violence.

Shows run Thurs - Sun Feb 1 - 24. Check the site for more info.
