Evil Dead The Musical takes all the elements of the cult classic films The Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2 and combines them for one of the craziest, funniest, and bloodiest theatrical experiences of all time.
You don’t need to be a fan of Evil Dead to love this show. You don’t need to be a fan of horror to love this show. You don’t even need to be a fan of musicals to love this show! As long as you like having fun - this show is for you!
Is it scary? No! Is it gory? Hell yeah! But this is a pure comedy, start to finish. It has fun with the horror genre, and by doing that appeals to everyone, whether they're hardcore horror fans or not. It even has a cute love story for all you hopeless romantics out there!
It’s also has a unique “Splatter Zone” – a section of the audience that gets covered in fake blood. And with this combination of blood, jokes, cheesy effects, and really awesome musical numbers, Evil Dead The Musical is unlike any live show you’ve ever seen.
Based on Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead movies, this is a story about a group of college kids, spending their weekend in a cabin in the woods.
Unfortunately this romantic get away becomes a blood splattered gore fest when they accidentally unleash an evil demon force, turning them one by one into showtune singing deadite zombies. And of course it is now up to our brave chainsaw wielding hero and S-Mart employee Ash to take them down and save the world.
While the Evil Dead films are the definition of cult movies, as a stage show, Evil Dead The Musical has become a cult sensation of its own. The show played Off-Broadway in New York, has broken records in Toronto, has won awards in Korea, launched three North American tours, and has had over 500 productions mounted across the globe. Critics rave about it, with everyone from The New York Times to Maxim Magazine giving it top marks. And because this show appeals to both the fans of the films (of which there’s still tons), and the new audience who loves it purely as a stage show, theatres who put on Evil Dead are blown away by the audience response. Evil Dead The Musical is truly the grooviest show you will ever experience.
