Smash Hit "Re-Animator- The Musical" To Add Performances, Including Midnight Show, By Huge Popular Demand. "Re-Animator- The Musical," the horror-comedy based on the 1985 cult movie hit and earlier H.P. Lovecraft story, is responding to overwhelming popular demand by adding performances at the Steve Allen Theater.
Effective Friday, April 22, the new performance schedule will be Friday at 8 p.m. and Midnight (it's a horror show, after all) , Saturday at 8 p.m., Sunday at 3:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. Ticket prices will increase at that time, from $25 to $30.
The musical has become a phenomenon, with audience members coming from as far away as San Francisco, Phoenix and San Diego, some dressed as the story's characters.
"Re-Animator- The Musical" is the story of research student Herbert West, the serum that he creates to revive the dead, and the havoc that he creates for the people of the college town where he now resides, especially for his roommate and his lovely fiancee, the dean's daughter.
The cast includes Graham Skipper, Chris L. McKenna, Rachel Avery, Harry S. Murphy, Jeese Merlin, Mark Beltzman, Cynthia Carle, Brian Gillespie and Liesel Hanson.
"Not since 'Little Shop of Horrors' has a screamfest tuner so deftly balanced seriousness and camp."
--- Bob Verini, Daily Variety
"Bloody hilarious! An instant classic."
--- Terry Morgan, LAist
"So terribly inappropriate that it's glorious!"
--- Anthony Byrnes, KCRW
"Eye-popping! This outlandish adaptation of the 1985 cult classic should have fans storming the Steve Allen Theater."
--- David C. Nichols, Los Angeles Times
"Richly sophisticated…The horror movie vibe is amplified by a genuine operatic ambition."
--- Myron Meisel, The Hollywood Reporter
"Two thumbs up. If you count the bloody severed thumb, then it's three!"
--- Kenneth Hughes, Flavorpill
