Tonight and Saturday — Come see "The Marijuana-logues" live in D.C.

You may have seen it off-Broadway, or caught a glimpse on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, but here’s your chance to see the critically acclaimed Marijuana-logues, live at Washington D.C.’s Harmon Center for the Arts.

Written by Arj Barker, Doug Benson, and Tony Camin, The Marijuana-logues played at the legendary Actor’s Playhouse in West Village from March 18, 2004, to March 27, 2005. Told from all points of view, from hazy to high-brow, the show sets marijuana center-stage, delving into fact and fiction, myths and misnomers alike. Performers will riff on the rites and rituals of marijuana and regale the crowd with the highs and lows of the plant, demonstrating that the stories that surround marijuana are as varied as those who indulge.

General admission tickets are $20 each and can be obtained at the Harmon Center box office, by phone at (202) 547-1122, or online at marijuanalogues.com/tour/. And don’t forget to stop by the MPP table while you’re there.

Here’s a sampling of what’s to offer:

"The Marijuana-Logues light up NYC! Emitting an air that is slightly subversive and laughter-inducing ... fast moving ... this talented and complementary trio breathes new life into pot humor. Inventive writing, irresistibly funny ... tongue firmly planted in cheek." — Associated Press

"It's a rare example of hipster comedy that truly gets the last laugh." — New York Press

"Side-splittingly funny. Leave your stereotype of the half-baked stoner at home; these guys are very alert and have their material down like clockwork, providing hit after hit of funny send-ups, commentary and anecdotes." — TalkinBroadway.com

Thanks, hope to see you there!
