A hilarious musical send-up of bad ’50s sci-fi movies is descending upon Perth this September.

Written by David Wechter and Bruce Kimmel, The Brain from Planet X makes it Australian debut at Phoenix Theatre, presented by Dark Psychic Productions.

In 1958, a brain and its two alien cohorts arrive on Earth with a plan to take over the San Fernando Valley – starting with a happy nuclear family. It’s the first step in their quest to destroy the family unit and take over the entire planet. Described as a “rousing, toe-tapping musical”, the show also features a singing, dancing brain.

Please note: all proceeds from program sales and the nightly raffle will go to the Multiple Sclerosis Society of WA, along with funds raised from the show’s earlier Flying Saucer Tea Party. Cast member Mario Piccoli, who plays General Mills in the show, has MS. See the video interview.
