The second in the 'Amateur Vile-Horrors' Trilogy of stage-plays, 'The Atomic Monster from Out of Space' is musical comedy (without score or libretto) based on the 1950's genre of monster movie, and written specifically for a large non-professional cast. William Denning, a sheriff in a small American town in the 1950s, reluctantly accepts the help of plucky female reporter, Patsy Parker while investigating a string of missing teenagers. What will they make of the mysterious swamp in an old forest, a thirty year old meteorite crash site, ominous black goo and the hideous green monster that stalks after them in the night? The Atomic Monster from Out of Space is written for a large non-professional cast and is royalty-free for non-profit making amateur productions. It has an adaptable cast of characters and a script that gives as much flexibility as possible for casting within existing drama groups.
