Little Green Men cover

A group of campers faces a humorous crisis during a Halloween night, as they believe little green men are invading their camp in Little Green Men.

In Little Green Men, a group of young campers and their adult counselors find themselves stranded at a mountaintop wilderness retreat on the night of October 30, 1938. As they gather around the radio, they tune into Orson Welles' infamous live broadcast of War of the Worlds, a performance that sent shockwaves across America. The campers are soon enveloped in a delightful panic, convinced that little green men from Mars are surrounding their camp. The tension escalates as the feuding boys and girls must put aside their differences to confront the mysterious threat looming outside the mess hall. Will they be able to unite and save themselves from the comical chaos that ensues?

This family-friendly musical comedy captures the whimsical spirit and slapstick humor reminiscent of late 1930s film comedies. With spooky campfires, ghostly shadows, and Halloween surprises, Little Green Men recreates the atmosphere of that fateful night when the nation held its breath in fear of an alien invasion. The original songs are lively and toe-tapping, evoking the charm of classic Warner Brothers and MGM musicals, complemented by energetic choreography inspired by legends like Busby Berkeley, Fred Astaire, and Gene Kelly.

Perfect for audiences of all ages, Little Green Men promises a delightful experience filled with laughter and nostalgia. From the youngest monster movie enthusiasts to seniors who recall that memorable Halloween night, everyone will find joy in this enchanting musical. It’s a testament to the enduring appeal of theater that brings families together for a night of fun and entertainment.
