Mad Libs® Live!

September 12 - 28, 2025

Cantey V. Sutton Theatre (Reserved Seating)


Get ready to laugh, sing, and fill in the blanks! Mad Libs Live! is a high-energy musical where YOU help create the show. Four quirky teens are competing on the hit TV show Teen Superstars – but just before they go on, they discover some of their songs are missing words! That’s where the audience comes in. You’ll suggest a variety of nouns, verbs, and adjectives, and the cast will perform a one-of-a-kind version of the show based on your answers. Every performance is totally different – and totally hilarious!

Music by Jeff Thomson
Book & Lyrics by Robin Rothstein

Directed by Amy & Bryan Pridgen
