Psycho Beach Party
'Psycho Beach Party' is a twisted mash-up of 1960s beach party movies, B-grade horror flicks, and classic psychological thrillers. Written by Charles Busch, this dark comedy transports audiences to the sun-soaked beaches of Malibu, where the surf isn't the only thing that's up. Chicklet Forrest is a sweet but socially awkward teenager with dreams of becoming a surfer. But Chicklet isn't your average beach bunny--she's grappling with multiple personalities, each more bizarre than the last. As the local beachgoers prepare for a summer of fun, Chicklet's alter egos begin to emerge, creating a storm of chaos that no one saw coming, taking a quirky cast of characters along for the ride. The play is filled with sharp, witty dialogue, campy humour, and a healthy dose of absurdity, all set against a backdrop of surf culture and 1960s nostalgia. 'Psycho Beach Party' is a riotous romp that blends satire and suspense, poking fun at the cultural tropes of the era while also offering a clever commentary on identity and self-discovery. Whether you're a fan of beach movies, thrillers, or just looking for a laugh, this play promises an unforgettable ride on the wild side of the shore.
