Dad's Garage Theatre Produces THANKSKILLING THE MUSICAL

They've produced some wacky, distasteful, and depraved shows in the past... this one takes the cake and the cranberry sauce for the most outlandish production to hit our stage!--

From Halloween to Thanksgiving, Dad's Garage is running "ThanksKilling the Musical," the most brazenly offensive show we've foolishly decided to take on. This show has singing, dancing, blood, and a very homicidal turkey. True to Dad's Garage style, ThanksKilling comes with its own drinking game; cause, hell, extra booze makes everything more fun. If you're going to have a crappy Thanksgiving dinner with your pervy uncle, weird cousins, and crazy in-laws, why not come on down to Dad's Garage and get drunk with us and see something even more dysfunctional than your traditional family gathering!

This show is based on ThanksKillling, a 2008 horror-comedy film written and directed by Jordan Downey, and co-written by Brad Schulz, Tony Wilson, Grant Yaffee, and Kevin Stewart. An ancient Indian uses the evil art of necromancy to bring back to life a demonic turkey who then hunts down five college students on their way home for Thanksgiving break. Laugh in terror as you watch these hapless kids try to stop the malevolent bird before he kills them all! This is how Squanto should have avenged the Native Americans when the Pilgrims stole their land. It's bloody. It's raunchy. There are tits the first scene. You've never, ever, ever, ever, ever seen a holiday show quite this provocative.

ThanksKilling The Musical first premiered in Seattle at Balagan Theatre in 2013, and since then it had a New York debut at the first annual Festival of the Offensive in 2014. Everybody should expect to get offended by ThanksKilling The Musical. Seriously... women, men, people of color, people not of color, pilgrims, Catholics, Rastafarians, old farts, babies, and even vegetarians ... no offensive joke is off the ThanksKilling table. Before you buy tickets, you will be required to acknowledge you understand the mess you're getting yourself into. Some of the original creators of the show will be on hand for our Atlanta premiere, so you can throw pumpkin pie at them! There will be no refunds. Sorry. Not Sorry.

Wanna follow this show on social media? Look for #ggmf and #ggmfatl on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. What do those letters mean? Gobble, Gobble, Motherfucker #ggmf ... We'll see you in hell this Thanksgiving!
