Magic Smoking Monkey Theatre, a bizarre offshoot of St.Louis Shakespeare, specializes in some of the strangest and wackiest theater in St. Louis. This strange cousin of SLS was co-founded by Donna Northcott and Mitch Herzog, SLS 's former Managing Director, and is completely independent from its parent company. The company performs in the late-night realm, and its first production was an all-live on-stage version of Ed Wood's classic Glen or Glenda?. This premiere production attracted sellout performances, and audiences have been genuinely appreciative of these truly goofy productions ever since.
