A hilariously twisted true-ish tale of survival, friendship & really questionable dinner plans
“Before there was South Park, Baseketball or Orgazmo, there was this Rocky Mountain freakout from the fevered imaginations of Parker and Stone…” – Austin Chronicle
Trey Parker’s Cannibal! The Musical is the true story of Alferd Packer, the only person ever convicted of cannibalism in America. The sole survivor of an ill-fated trip to the Colorado Territory, he tells his side of the harrowing tale to news reporter Polly Pry as he awaits his execution. And his story goes like this: While searching for gold and love in the Colorado Territory, he and his companions lost their way and resorted to unthinkable horrors, including toe-tapping songs!
This production includes extensive adult themes and language.
