Book and music by Joe Kinosian
Book and Lyrics by Kellen Blair
A new musical comedy adapted from the ‘50s classic sci-fi film from Universal Pictures—now in “thrilling 3D,” live on stage! Amateur astronomer Jon Putnam encounters an alien spaceship in the desert and becomes the laughingstock of his small town, until the extraterrestrial visitors make their presence known, and he must convince the gathering mob that they have come in peace. A clever musical score and creative physical humor puts a new spin on Ray Bradbury’s flying saucer tale—examining society’s fear of outsiders as it simultaneously embraces the wonder of what lies just beyond the stars.
