Stoners and smokers alike! Grab your buds and come celebrate 4/20 with an evening of cannabis comedy: "Marijuanarama!" For the third year in a row, the EEK! Theatre Company opens up their secret stash to bring you sketches, songs, and stand-up celebrating the earthly herb. But this year, it's a brand new bag featuring ALL NEW material. You won't 'juana miss this HIGH-larious night of tokin' and jokin' that will have you laughing long after your buzz has died off.

Two performances! Two chances to get your legal dose of THC: Tickles, Ha Ha's, and Chuckles. Come check out the comedy extrava-ganja "Marijuanarama!" Because it's high time we all had a laugh.

Founded by brothers Dan and Jeremy Eden with the help of their close, personal friend Kevin Kirchman, the EEK! Theatre Company's goal is to bring their unique, acerbic brand of humor to the stage and drop the pants of American comedy. They've previously shocked, appalled, and amused audiences with four Marijuanarama! showcases, their raunchy sketch comedy shows Bikini Robots From Hell, Sharks With Knives, and Christ Capades!, as well as the patriarchal yuletide comedy Father Christmas. A feature film adaptation of their satirical play I HATE THEATRE! will be released in late 2013. Their antics can also be seen on the popular web series Three Guys, One Room (www.youtube.com/3g1r).
