Ok, So I have this Idea...

My friends and I are planning on doing a play once a month made for people on mushrooms. it is not going to have an amazing story line or anything, but I was looking for ideas. It will be held at night in my apartment which is pretty large. (For an apartment) and i was thinking it would go something like this... Curtains open, every thing is black to start with, then a fire pit lights up in the middle of the room, (a fake fire like the ones with fabric and lights for flames, with fans that blow the fabric) sitting around the fire are a small group of Indians, smoking a peace pipe, (you know, we gotta have a little fun putting it on) and Indian flute music and chanting begins to play, (the Indians don't talk, just sort of "act") then a black light comes on and lights up all the stars in the sky (Glow in the dark stars that are hanging on the walls and ceiling.) The music goes on for a few minutes while the Indians smoke a bowl, and act all spiritual like Indians so often do, and when the song is over, the curtains shut and a light projecting ball thing is set on a table beside the curtain and turned on to some happy hardcore music or something while we change sets. We have a ton of ideas on how to put it on, and kind of a lot of toys and costumes and stuff. (Bubble makers, Art in motion pictures, those Muppet's with the strings on them that look like they came from "The Dark Crystal", and stuff like that. We are thinking it will be a happy, fun time during intermissions when we change sets and stuff, and we will try to cater to the more spiritual feelings shrooms bring on during the actual skits. The reason I went into so much detail is because I was wanting to get suggestions from You guys on themes for skits and things like that. I call upon the vast knowledge of the shroomery message board for guidance. I want to make it both fun and emotionally moving. Ok, ready GO!

Thats very creative, good idea.
I dont have any suggestion though... For me, personally, I would rather climb a tree, stare at the stars and contemplate existence. But thats just me..
One thing is for certain, psychedelic lights are always good whilst tripping.

I don't really know when yet, we have to get it organized and everything. I also like to be outside more, but I like to mix it up. I want it to be like nothing they have ever seen. (Not too hard with mushrooms on the brain) believe me, I still go outside and always will. I worked in a national park for 4 summers. outside is inside of me. but I still like the mindfuck now and then, as long as its not too scary.

It sounds like fun but I think playing Happy Hardcore right after the spiritual parts will kind of ruin the atmosphere. Hopefully you upload to youtube so everybody can see it.

One of the major points was to have an occasionally changing atmosphere. The crazy lights and music was just an example. we could put the "Art in Motion" picture out instead to make the transition smoother. That is a good point though. I want it it "flow" naturally from one setting to the next. We are definitely planning on video taping it. I found this on youtube a couple of min ago. It is a kinda crappy version of what I was thinking about doing. Ours would be MUCH better though. (Better props, atmosphere, music, less goofy) That being said, they do seem to have a good time.

ok, so really though, nobody has any ideas? I know you guys can come up with some good stuff. Think props and costumes, music and atomshpere. Preferably no speaking parts, but I am open to anything. Please...

I think lord of the flies would make a great play for people on mushrooms.
You would have to have speaking parts, but that's ok, they could be kept to a minimal.
I cant think of a set list for music though, although some chill/lush ambient mixed in with some dark beats may work =]
