PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Casting "Psycho Beach Party," a play. Synopsis: "Psycho Beach Party" is an insanely fun romp on Malibu Beach in 1962. It's what happens when Gidget, Frankie & Annette, and Alfred Hitchcock are given a shotgun marriage. Teenage tomboy Chicklet Forrest desperately wants to be part of the surf crowd, but her multiple personalities get in her way- especially her most dangerous alter ego, voracious vixen Ann Bowman, who desires nothing less than world domination. Add surfer dudes, beach babes, a B-movie star, and a villain of a mom who would make Joan Crawford cringe, and you've got a zany comedy that the Associated Press calls "fiendishly funny!"
