Crash Course

Regional A version available by request

Welcome to the chaotic world of Crash Course, where the humdrum routine of a car crash test factory takes a wild turn when the crash test dummies come to life after the factory doors close. As the night unfolds, these dummies break free from their restraints, launching themselves over walls, exploding into pieces, and even orchestrating a slow-motion crash test with car parts flying in every direction. The mischievous dummies turn the factory into their playground, creating a night of mayhem and hilarity.

When morning arrives, a worker returns to find the factory floor in total disarray, with dummies scattered everywhere and the remnants of their chaotic escapades all around. The upbeat and playful score by John Max McFarland drives the fun, paying homage to the beloved crash test dummy safety commercials of the 1990s. Crash Course is a high-energy show that blends humor and nostalgia with thrilling percussion, turning a typical night at the factory into an unforgettable adventure.
