Someone is killing off the Drama Club of Vera Miles High School,
everyone is a suspect and you decide who the killer is! Combining a
slasher movie plot with a rock ‘n roll score, pop-culture humor and an
homage to classic horror film clichés, SCARY MUSICAL The Musical has
all the elements of your favorite “Scary Movies” with an added twist –
the teenagers sing and dance – before, during and sometimes after
getting killed!

spiders Leucauge venusta.”

Haunted Screens: German Cinema in the 1920s explores
masterworks of German Expressionist cinema. From the stylized fantasy of The
Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (dir. Robert Wiene, 1919) to the chilling murder
mystery M (dir. Fritz Lang, 1931), cinema during the liberal Weimar era was
innovative in aesthetic, psychological, and technical terms.

"Re-Animator the Musical tells the story of Herbert West, a
brilliant young medical student who has created a glowing green serum that can
bring the dead back to life. What should be a medical breakthrough results in
hideous monstrosities and ghastly consequences. “I guess he just wasn’t fresh
enough,” is West’s constant refrain in his quest for fresh subjects. Graham
Skipper, who won a Best New Performer Award at the New York Musical Theater
Festival for his crowd-pleasing turn, returns as the demented young genius. And
operatic Jesse Merlin is back as Dr. Carl Hill, who loses his head for Meg, the
dean’s beautiful daughter, only to actually lose it at the hands of Herbert
West. But thanks to the glowing re-agent, Dr. Hill is still able to take his
curtain call with his head tucked underneath his arm."
