OpenStage Theatre Brings “Reefer Madness” to The Lincoln Center

Organic Alternatives sponsors “Reefer Madness” with exciting events and exclusive offers

OpenStage Theatre & Company invites audiences to experience the upcoming production of “Reefer Madness,” with book by Kevin Murphy and Dan Studney, music by Dan Studney and lyrics by Kevin Murphy. “Reefer Madness” is set to delight audiences at The Lincoln Center Magnolia Theatre from Nov. 2-30, 2024.

There is a new menace sweeping the nation, ready to ensnare and seduce the youth and drag them down into a life of sin: “Reefer Madness.” Inspired by the 1936 propaganda film of the same name, this raucous musical comedy takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the hysteria caused when clean-cut kids Jimmy (Henry Hawes) and Mary Lane (Nicole Gardner) fall prey to marijuana, leading them on a delirious downward spiral filled with jazz music, sex and violence. It’s full of camp, hilarity and mayhem—if you get high on laughter, you have come to the right place.

Organic Alternatives is thrilled to announce its sponsorship of OpenStage’s highly anticipated production of “Reefer Madness.” To celebrate the opening night on Nov. 2, Organic Alternatives invites guests to join the VIP Reefer Den Party following the performance, where attendees can enjoy an unforgettable evening of fun and festivities. In addition to the launch event, Organic Alternatives will provide exclusive discounts for ticket buyers throughout the run of “Reefer Madness” as well as special edition companion Jazz Cabbage pre-rolls, available starting Oct. 25 while supplies last. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to
experience an iconic show while enjoying special offers from a local dispensary. You must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID to purchase.

All performances on Thursday, Friday and Saturday start at 7:30 p.m. Sunday matinee performances start at 2 p.m. Visit openstage.com/reefer-madness for a complete list of performances, including a free student/educator performance (Nov. 1), a pay-what-you-can performance (Nov. 7) and FAB Friday, which includes a free beer from Odell Brewing Company.
