Show Synopsis

M.A.D. Theatre of Tampa is proud to kick off our 2007-2008 season with Reefer Madness!, the Off Broadway hit musical comedy based on the propaganda film of the same name from the 1930's. Reefer Madness! is a musical satire about the evils of the "Demon Weed", as typical law abiding teenagers transition from good eggs to bad apples right before your very eyes! Young Jimmy Harper finds his life of promise turn into a life of debauchery and murder thanks to the new drug menace marijuana. Along the way he receives help from his girlfriend, Mary, and Jesus himself, but always finds himself in the arms of the Reefer Man and the rest of the denizens of the Reefer Den.
