An anonymous company of merry children gather on a cold winter night to rejoice in telling the story of Scientology founder and hero L. Ron Hubbard. Rejoicing in songs such as “Hey! It’s a Happy Day!,” this satirical musical about Scientology explores the magic of Dianetics, the fascinating E-meter, the immortal Thetans, and the entrancing story of Xenu with the straightest of faces. The show was originally presented in 2003 in New York City by Les Freres Corbusier and won a 2004 Obie Award.
