Monsters in Napa: ‘…Rebobs!’ Returns to Lucky Penny

The ’80s-themed cryptozoology musical comedy runs at the Lucky Penny Community Arts Center in Napa through Nov. 8.

The decades-old story purports that the hills surrounding the valley are home to hybrid critters—part ape, part bat, and with the aid of a mad scientist in the wake of World War II, part robot. As in tales of Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster, many people claim to have had encounters with the Rebobs, but nobody has ever produced incontrovertible proof.
