Promethean Fires up the Stewpot

The Promethean Theatre, following up their success at the Carbonell Awards and their acclaimed production of The Dumb Show have announced their foray into the world of the summer musical:


For those unfamiliar with the show, it's an adaptation of a cult film by Trey Parker, the creator of South Park, and the movie TEAM: AMERICA.
Cannibal! The Musical tells the tale of Alferd "Alfred" Packer, the only American ever to be convicted of cannibalism. As Packer faces a judge and jury, he recounts his journey across Colorado Territory in 1873 leading a hapless group in search of gold.

Cannibal! Is a perilous tour de force filled with cowboys, horse-love, snowmen, evil trappers, the Cyclops and other unthinkable horrors, including toe-tapping tunes! Don't miss this cannibalistic cowboy musical. The most terrifying, gut-wrenching and hilarious musical since The Sound of Music.

It's a Man eat Man world out there!
The cast of Cannibal! includes William Adams, Katherine Amadeo (Carbonell Nominated Best Actress), Jeffrey Bower, Anne Chamberlain, James Carrey, Matthew William Chizever (Carbonell Nominated Best Actor in a Musical), Ken Clement (Carbonell Award Winner), Phillip de la Cal, Mark Della Ventura, Mark Duncan, Andy Fiacco, Ed Fitzpatrick, Lindsey Forgey, Dan Gelbmann, Noah Levine, David Meulmans, Sean Muldoon, Andy Quiroga and Patrick Jesse Watkins.
