Synopsis
SEE... a musical so hilarious that it sold out theaters from coast to coast!
SEE... the first show told in "FEEL-O-RAMA"!
SEE... an all-knowing, all-singing, all-dancing giant brain!
... really, what more could you want from a night on the town?
A rip-roaring musical send-up of bad 50s sci-fi movies, The Brain From Planet X tells the story of an alien invasion circa 1958. When an ill-intentioned band of interplanetary travelers arrive on Earth with a plan to take over the world, an all-too regular, nuclear family is forced to defend the human race from will-bending extinction. Can YOU withstand the power of the Brain from Planet X?!
