Om Jesus & Johnny Appleweed's Holy Rollin' Family Christmas
It's 1959 and there's pot in the Christmas cookies. What could go wrong? "What if Seth Rogen, Charles Dickens, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Cheech and Chong, Christopher Hitchens, Hunter S. Thompson, and John Waters decided to have a baby?" - KDHX "A pot-laced, Dickensian, Cheech & Chong-esque holiday spoof that is reminiscent of when Saturday Night Live was in its heyday." - BroadwayWorld "Surreal nostalgic fun... a hilarious and upbeat musical for mature audiences." - The Riverfront Times "A wacky, if pungent, new look... a snarky (and oddly charming) holiday event." - TalkinBroadway "A fun-filled lampoon of Christianity, middle America and the straight-laced culture of the 1950s." - Ladue News "Resembles the audacious dark comedy material that John Waters and Charles Busch specialize in." - PopLifeSTL So what happens when a family's secrets are all revealed on one outrageous, pot-fueled Christmas Eve in 1959? Poor Harry Goodson is about to find out, as he's visited overnight by his dead brother Jerry, Jesus Christ, Sandra Dee, and Johnny Appleweed, and he finally learns what his family already knows, that the answer to all his problems is marijuana! A wacky companion piece to the unintentionally hilarious 1936 scare film Reefer Madness, this new musical is a tongue-in-cheek response to the War on Drugs and the Culture Wars, a comic look at what a little pot and a little truth can do to a normal, average, Midwestern, American family at mid-century, just as America plunges into the chaos of the 1960s. This volume contains all the songs from the adult, stoner, Christmas musical.
