NiTE presents: Evil Dead the Musical
"You’ll laugh. You’ll scream. You’ll leave covered in blood."
"Deadites, chainsaws, and show tunes — groovy!"
"The only musical where you hope the splash zone hits you."
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.
Five college students go to an abandoned cabin in the woods, and accidentally unleash an evil force that turns them all into demons. It’s all up to Ash (a housewares employee turned demon-killing hero), and his trusty chainsaw to save the day. Blood flies. Limbs are dismembered. Demons tell bad jokes...and all to music. The songs in the show are completely off the wall as well. Titles like "All the Men in My Life Keep Getting Killed by Kandarian Demons" and "What the F**k was That?" have had audiences rolling in their seats and screaming for more and more blood.
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 disturbing? No! Is it gloriously gory? YES! This is a pure comedy start to finish. It has fun with the horror genre, and in doing so appeals to a wider audience than you could ever imagine. Plus it’s the only show with a "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.

Evil Dead the Musical is rated R (ages 17+, or younger with a parent/guardian) for strong language, sexual themes, comedic violence, and gore.
Both Halloween shows feature a costume contest. The 11:00 pm "Halloween Night of the Deadites" performance features additional goodies -- see below!
SPLATTER ZONE
The front two rows of each show are the Splatter Zone -- where the blood flows faster than Ash’s one-liners. You will get drenched in buckets of deliciously fake gore. Wear clothes you won’t mind looking like you chainsawed your way through a cabin full of Deadites -- because you basically will. This interactive audience experience will leave you dripping with excitement (and blood) and comes with a survival kit and t-shirt to commemorate your time at NiTE's Evil Dead the Musical!
Please note: Splatter Zone guests will be directed to exit through the side doors after the performance to help contain the “blood” inside the theater. This exit includes a steep ramp, so we advise taking caution when leaving.
