MAD MAX – LIVE! Stage Play Coming to St. Louis in June

“If I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die historic on the Fury Road!”

St. Louis Shakespeare’s The Magic Smoking Monkey Theatre adapts a cult film into an onstage farce once a year. Previous adaptions have included PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE, REEFER MADNESS, GLEN OR GLENDA, GAME OF THRONES, HARRY POTTER, and THE STAR WARS TRILOGY (!!). In 2011 they helped celebrate Vincentennial, the Vincent Price 100th Birthday Celebration with a stage presentation of one of the home town horror star’s classics: THE ABOMINABLE DR. PHIBES  in 3D, a sidesplitting, Pythonesque parody.

This year, those crazy Smoking Monkeys are presenting MAD MAX – a spoof of all four of those great Mel Gibson action movies (and that Tom Hardy one). So join MAD MAX and a cast of rowdy characters in an epic race for guzzolene, freedom and a better life beyond Thunderdome…in 60 minutes or less. THAT’S RIGHT! All 4 movies in less than an hour!

***Patrons are encouraged to show up in their post-apocalyptic finest and compete in a costume contest. Fabulous prizes awarded at EVERY performance!

The dates of the play are: June 10th, 11th, 17th and 18th

TWO shows nightly at 8:00pm and 10:30pm
