Devil Boys From Beyond

DC Arts Center
2438 18th Street NW Washington

Summer of 1957 is a scorcher and something strange is going on in the swamps of Lizard Lick, Florida. With rumors of missing people and giant spaceships running rampant, star NYC reporter Mattie Van Buren races down in search of her next Pulitzer, her booze-hound ex-husband, Gregory Graham in tow, and her arch-enemy, Lucinda Marsh hot on her heels to scoop her story. Flying saucers! Backstabbing bitches! Muscle hunks and men in pumps! INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS meets HIS GIRL FRIDAY in this outrageously insane comedy.

"... In a bizarre yet delightful and apocalyptic take on a 1950’s gumshoe mystery fueled by dueling journalists hot on the trail for the next big scoop, the Landless Theater staging of Devil Boys from Beyond graces DCAC with hilariously campy gender bending entertainment until February 26th."

MD Theatre Guide - Highly Recommended

"... Something strange and exciting has landed in DC! Landless Theatre Company’s DC premiere of Devil Boys From Beyond by Buddy Thomas and Kenneth Elliot is absolutely out of this world. The raucous, foul-mouthed comedy is a delightful romp through a backwater Florida town visited by aliens. Two fiery femme fatale reporters go head-to-head to report on the story of the century and have to deal with the strange locals. The comedic all-male show is directed by Heather Bagnall Scheeler, whose ironic mismatched height casting is sure to provide endless laughter for audiences."

the company that brings you inane post-modern theatre, has hit another one: Devil Boys from Beyond,and though it’s a triple to the right field wall rather than a grand slam, it’s still worthy of a trip to Adams-Morgan.
