Money, revenge, redemption- everyone is promised something, but will anyone find out the truth in the end?

Pulp Fiction, the Musical Parody

Based on the smash 1994 Quentin Tarantino film, “Pulp Fiction, the Musical Parody” is chock full of all the things you want in a musical: blood, guts, violence,  non-linear storytelling, sex, drugs, fixed fights, dead body disposal, the gimp, a mysterious briefcase and a wristwatch that makes a dark journey down through the generations.

Hot on the heels of annual fan-favorite “Die Hard, the Musical Parody”, this show promises to bring that same twisted Funhouse sense of humor, courtesy of writer/director Andy Barrett and composer/musical director James Liptak. 

Featuring Portland treasures Landy Lamb, Sean Ryan Lamb, James R. Dixon, Sara King, Kristin Barrett, Bethany Ziskind, and Bill Christensen.
