New Moon Theatre

New Moon Theatre, located at 2085 Monroe Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee, is a unique institution that offers a diverse range of performances that are sometimes weird, sometimes moving, but always captivating. Inspired by the original 1936 film, New Moon Theatre presents raucous musical comedies, dark satirical plays, and thought-provoking stories that push boundaries and challenge audiences.

One of their productions, a musical comedy, takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the hysteria caused by marijuana use among clean-cut kids, leading them on a downward spiral filled with evil jazz music, sex, and violence. Another play explores wealth inequality through a ferocious war between different species of squirrels. And a poignant story follows a young boy named Conor who must face his deepest fears with the help of a mysterious monster.

New Moon Theatre aims to entertain audiences with challenging and provocative works that are not often seen on the mainstages of Memphis. With their eclectic lineup of performances, New Moon Theatre offers a truly unique and unforgettable theatrical experience.
