Psycho Beach Party
The Theater Company of Hoboken presents Charles Busch's classic play "Psycho Beach Party" Imagine Gidget crossed with The Three Faces of Eve and Mommie Dearest! Chicklet, a perky teenager in Malibu Beach circa 1962, wants to learn to surf and join a group of beach bums led by the great Kanaka. Unfortunately, she suffers from a multiple personality disorder. Seeing red causes her to transform into various other selves, including a sinister vamp out to conquer the world. Complications arise when a movie starlet flees the set of her latest rotten movie to hide among the surfers. The climax is a wild luau scene where hypnosis reveals the shocking root of Chicklet's psychosis. Performed in TTC's Studio C413, 4th Floor of the Monroe Center. Free parking behind the Monroe Center (7th and Jackston Streets) and only one block from the Congress Street Light Rail Station.
