<div class="MsoNormal">SLOBSTER, a sci-fi, comedy, musical, tells the story of a
dishwasher, a mad scientist, his environmentalist girlfriend, an evil Congressman
and a group of people who are trying to get patents on a machine to harvest the
lobsters and dominate the oceans.<span style="">
</span>The scientist has been working for years to develop a process to morph
man and lobster.<span style=""> </span>He stumbles
across S.L. Obster, a guy who washes dishes in a local fish restaurant and
figures he has found the perfect subject to finalize his experiment.<span style=""> </span>The only catch is that he had not
counted on getting caught up in the frenzy set off when two different groups
try to dominate the ocean by patenting a machine to scoop the lobsters out of
the sea.<span style=""> </span>When his former
girlfriend, an environmental activist on Capitol Hill calls and asks for his
help, he can’t say no.<span style=""> </span>Naturally,
coming up with a plan to save the lobsters is not as easy as it seems.</div>
