REEFER MADNESS REEFER MADNESS Director's Notes Book by Kevin Murphy & Dan Studney Music by Dan Studney In 1936 the original movie, Reefer Madness, was produced and distributed. Originally titled TellYour Children, the movie was considered a "propaganda exploitation drama." Lyrics by Kevin Murphy Meant to be taken very seriously, indeed, the movie was directed at parents of teens warning in very graphic primitive ways of the evils of marijuana usage. Largely under Setting: Takes place in Gorham, Maine, 1936. the influence of Harry J. An slinger, the country's first commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, the movie is a melodramatic, voyeuristic sensational look at the ACT 1 journey of two American youths from perfect, happy teens to psycho zombie (him) and nymphomaniac (her). With little regard for veracity or research, the movie warns that one puffof marijuana will turn a person into a monster. Reefer Madness Lecturer & Company Romeo & Juliet Jimmy & Mary Interestingly, Anslinger wasn't so much interested in marijuana as heroin which he The Stuff Mae considered a genuine national threat. However, Mr. Anslinger came under the lobbying Down at the 01' Five and Dime Lecturer, Jimmy, Jack & Company forces of media mogul, William Randolph Hurst, who in turn wasn't so much worried Jimmy Takes a Hit Sally, Jimmy, Jack, Ralph, Mae & Lecturer about marijuana and its injurious impact on our youth as he was about hemp. Hurst The Orgy Company had economic interests in the development of nylon, and hemp cordage was in direct competition with nylon. Additionally, Mr. Hurst was an intense rival to Joseph Pulitzer Lonely Pew Mary whose own brand of yellow journalism had "pushed the boundaries of mass appeal for Listen to Jesus, Jimmy Jesus & Company newspapers through bold headlines, an exuberant public spirit, and dramatic crime and Lullabye Sally's Baby human-interest stories." Mary Jane/Mary Lane Jimmy, Mary & Company Act One Finale Company So using fear as a tool to forwardhis business interests, William Randolph Hurst waged a sensational, highly exploitive war against marijuana usage. Ironically, in testimony in the 1930s, Dr. William C. Woodward, legislative counsel of the American Medical ACT2 Association, asserted that newspaper exploitation of the habit has done more to increase [marijuana usage] than anything else." Jimmy on the Lam Mary, Jimmy, Sally, Ralph, Mae & Company The Brownie Song Jimmy & Company Almost since its first showing the movie developed a cult following, and essentially, the Down at the 01' Five and Dime (reprise) Lecturer film became a spoof of itself. Flash forward to 1998. Creative team, Dan Studney and Little Mary Sunshine Ralph & Mary Kevin Murphy create a musical spoof of the film in 1998, and this in turn was the basis of the 2005 film all of the same name. Mary's Death Jimmy & Mary Murder Company This brings us to the production you are about to experience. Imagine that it is 1936, The Stuff(reprise) Mae and a traveling troupe of young, professional actors have created a theatrical version Listen to Jesus, Jimmy (reprise) Jesus, Jimmy & Company of Reefer Madness. They travel to small town America spreading the word about the The Truth Company dangers of this evil weed, and the fall of Jimmy Harper and Mary Lane. Tonight you are lucky enough that the Gorham High School Parent Teachers Association has sponsored this production. Last night they were in Skowhegan, tomorrow in Malden MA. Sponsored by Here at the University of Southern Maine in 201 6, student actors, technicians, musicians, faculty and guest artists have worked for the past several months to create our unique take on this cult classic.

Marijuana was said to be ‘a new drug that maddens victims’ and it was sensationally described as an ‘evil sex drug’. The resulting tabloid furore saw the plant cannabis sativa banned in Australia, even though cannabis had been a well-known and widely used drug in Australia for many decades.

  • Data, Damn Lies, and Cannabis Policy: Reefer Madness and the Methodological Crimes of the New Prohibitionists
    Critical Criminology https://doi.org/10.1007/s10612-020-09548-8 Data, Damn Lies, and Cannabis Policy: Reefer Madness and the Methodological Crimes of the New Prohibitionists Jon Heidt1 · Johannes Wheeldon2 Accepted: 17 December 2020 © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. part of Springer Nature 2021 Abstract The rapid pace of cannabis legalization in North America has provoked a backlash that is predictable and discouraging. The New Prohibitionists, distinct but related to their pre- decessors, the Old Prohibitionsists, have ofered scholarship rife with conceptual errors, methodological faws, and practical oversights. While their advice would likely hasten that which they seek to decrease, they overlook the costs of returning to practices associated with prohibition. To counter simplistic research interpretations and ill-considered policy, we present a critically informed research program on cannabis and crime based on previ- ous scholarship. Our work is designed to apply replacement discourse and refocus research to withstand the tendency for justice systems to subvert, rather than embrace, reform. Can- nabis legalization has been decades in the making and serious questions remain for propo- nents, opponents, and policymakers. Society, however, will be far worse of if the mistakes of reefer madness are repeated. Introduction The speed at which cannabis legalization in the United States (US) has proceeded is stag- gering. Once grown as a crop in early America, hemp soon became synonymous with psy- choactive cannabis which had higher levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that suppos- edly caused violence and crime. Cannabis was prohibited in the 1930s, based in part on a campaign designed to scapegoat, label, stigmatize, and criminalize “dangerous” Mexican immigrants (Tosh 2019: 333).

From these all other questions follow. First, simple possession of less than an ounce of marijuana is not a crime in New York State. Since 1977 and passage of the Marijuana Reform Act, state law has made simple possession of 25 grams or less of marijuana (or less than seventh- eighths of an ounce) a violation, similar in some ways to a traffic infraction. A person found by the police to be possessing a small amount of marijuana in a pocket or belongings can be given a criminal court summons and fined $100 plus court costs, and may suffer other consequences, some quite serious.1 But at least initially, violations and summonses rarely include arrests, fingerprints, criminal records, and jailings.2 For over 30 years, New York State has formally, legally decriminalized possession of marijuana.

  • Reefer Madness – Erva Maldita!
    1 REEFER MADNESS – ERVA MALDITA! Estamos numa pequena cidade americana no ano de 1936. Pais extremosos acotovelam-se na escola local para ouvirem “O Conferencista” que viaja de cidade em cidade alertando a população para uma nova droga que ameaça os jovens de todo o país: a marijuana! Na sua palestra, conta-nos a história de Jimmy Harper e Mary Lane, um adorável par de inocentes adolescentes apaixonados que adoram dançar e estudar Shakespeare. Apresenta-nos depois o lado negro, o “Covil da Erva”, habitado por Mae, Sally e Ralph, viciados em marijuana e liderado por Jack Stone. Os adolescentes costumam reunir-se no “Five and Dime”, uma geladaria local onde se dança e canta. É aí que Jack procura novas vítimas e ao ver que Jimmy tem dificuldade em acompanhar o ritmo de Mary Lane, propõe dar-lhe aulas de dança. Já no Covil da Erva, Jimmy é pressionado a aceitar um cigarro de marijuana e prova o fruto proibido. Nas semanas seguintes, vemos Jimmy sofrer uma terrível transição com danças alucinatórias, sátiros, rouba a caixa de esmolas da igreja, tenta dar um beijo de língua à adorável Mary, rouba-lhe o carro e, junto com Sally, atropela um mendigo, matando-o. Mary tenta ajudá-lo a enfrentar os seus demónios e segue Jimmy até ao Covil da Erva onde é seduzida por Ralph que a convence também a fumar um cigarro transformando a inocente Mary numa louca dependente da marijuana. Ao descobrir Mary e Ralph numa posição comprometedora, Jimmy ataca Ralph e quando Jack se intromete na discussão, deixa Jimmy inconsciente e atinge acidentalmente Mary com um tiro matando-a.
