SILENCE OF THE CLAMS

The same writer, director, and cast of "Mommie Queerest" present Morris' parody of the 1990 Oscar-winning Jodie Foster/Anthony Hopkins thriller.
THE SILENCE OF THE CLAMS will play the PAC Firehouse Theatre March 24-27 for four shows only, Thursday thru Saturday at 8PM, Sunday at 5PM.

In CLAMS butch FBI agent Clarice Startling is assigned to help find Nancy Pelosi's missing daughter and save her from "Beaver Bob", a serial killer who skins his victims "down there." Clarice attempts to gain better insight into the mind of the killer by interviewing Dr. Hannibal Lichter, a convicted psychopath who "eats" his female victims before kills them. The twisted relationship forces Clarice not only to confront her own psychological demons (when will those CLAMS STOP SCREAMING?!) but leads her face-to-face with a demented killer so evil that even she may not have the courage - or strength - to stop him!

Directed by Kenney, CLAMS will feature Morris as Hannibal Lichter and Beaver Bob; Braselman will portray Clarice Startling, Nancy Pelosi and her daughter. Ross will tackle everyone else, over a dozen characters.

CLAMS had its world premiere in Provincetown, MA in 2007. The Provincetown Banner said of the production: "The Silence of the Clams," modeled masterfully after the Academy-Award winning film, creates and instantly perfects a new genital genre, the "vagina joke." Spread the word, 'Clams' is funny, uproarious, provocative and smart."

During a recent sold-out run in Las Vegas, the Las Vegas Weekly said "The 75 minute parody plays fast and loose like a live John Waters film. Clams provides the rude jolt of campy energy the local theater scene needed. I can't wait for the company's next pop culture victim."
