Crapp's River is an unauthorised musical parody created by Sacred Heart University Repertory Theatre Company, reimagining the beloved fish-out-of-water series with absurd comedy and hilariously inappropriate twists. Follow Moira, Johnny, David, Alexis and the clueless mayor Roland Crapp as they navigate the quirks of an offbeat, unpredictable town. With chaotic humour and a surprisingly sweet message about finding belonging in unlikely places, this sixty-minute musical comedy plays at Blether and is suitable for ages twelve and over.
Why see this show?
Sharp parody humour married to genuine affection for its source material, with an unexpectedly sweet message about finding belonging. Fans of musical comedy and chaotic ensemble performances will find plenty to enjoy in this gleefully irreverent show.
