Alick is lost in the underground of an amusement park in 1963 where he meets a cast of strange characters including a washed-up old princess and a sarcastic donkey. He embarks on a journey through the dark underbelly and discovers who he is.

At Happy Happy Valley amusement park, Alick loses his way into the tunnels beneath the attractions and enters a decaying wonderland inhabited by a washed-up princess, a hapless cowboy, a sarcastic donkey, and other quirky characters. Darkly comic, surreal, and unexpectedly tender, MAD UNDERGROUND follows a child’s journey through illusion, confusion, and identity, and a mother’s struggle to see the child who has been beside her all along for who she is.

• When: Sept. 11-27
• Show Times: Thursday-Saturday, 7 p.m. & Sunday, 2 p.m.
• Where: Stage Left, 108 West Third Avenue, Spokane, WA
• Tickets: $30 general admission ($25, senior/military; $20, student; Thursdays, pay what you can). Purchase here.

A portion of ticket sales will benefit Odyssey Youth Movement, which has been promoting equity for LGBTQ+ youth in the Inland Northwest since 1992.

Content advisory: mild profanity, depictions of substance use, mature themes, use of prop weapons
