Fly into the danger zone with a show that's as crazy as it sounds. Top Gun: Live, Abridged, and Completely Underfunded is a stage production of the classic Tom Cruise film, but instead of hunky fighter pilots soaring in the sky you'll see scruffy puppets gliding a few feet above the stage.

There are also plenty of hilarious shoutouts to other iconic '80s films like E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, The Goonies and The Princess Bride. The creator of the show, Shaun Michael McNamara, says to think of it as a cheap and lascivious love letter to the '80s. And fair warning, these puppets don't live on Sesame Street and this show is not for the easily offended.

Come see these googley-eyed, molting, motley puppets gliding several feet off the ground! The real question is, do you have the need? The need for speed!

April 7th- 29th, 2017, Playhouse On The Park at The Central Arts Plaza, 1850 N. Central Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85004. For Tickets: 602-254-2151
