For the 98th Kritzerland show, it's our annual May madness show, which, like our crazy April Fools show, is equally mad and wild, with some pretty stuff thrown in, too. 

David Carpenter, John Arthur Pinckard, Christian Campbell, and America Olivo will present a private, industry only reading of the musical Reefer Madness The Musical on Thursday, April 18, 2019.

By popular demand Rockwell Table & Stage has extended the run of the 'Unauthorized Musical Parody of Stranger Things' now set for 4 days a week in February and Thursday and Friday for the first three weeks of March at Rockwell with new cast addition of the incomparable talent of Carrie Manolakos joining the ensemble.

Justin Collette is currently jamming the night away making his Broadway debut leading the School of Rock company as Dewey. Taking on a role as nonstop and electric as this, Collette has plenty to say about the experience including following in the steps of iconic actors Jack Black and Alex Brightman, working with overwhelmingly talented children, and the energy required to keep Dewey alive on stage from start to finish.

Rockwell Table & Stage presents the brand-new 'Unauthorized Musical Parody of Stranger Things' running Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights at Rockwell October 26th thru November 17th.

Kate Pazakis, executive producer of the UNAUTHORIZED MUSICAL PARODY OF series, continues her successful streak of hysterical musical parodies of cinematic pop favorites with THE UNAUTHORIZED MUSICAL PARODY OF STRANGER THINGS. Pazakis' most witty script cleverly utilizes pop songs to advance the narrative of the Netflix cult phenom Stranger Things. Nathan Moore expertly directs his cast of enthusiastic triple-threats at a rousing, non-stop pace with only enough time for deserved applause to die down before the next song or comedy bit tickles your funny bones. 

Rockwell Table & Stage will present the brand-new "Unauthorized Musical Parody of Stranger Things" running Thursday, Today and Saturday nights at Rockwell October 26th thru November 17th.
