Theatre Company of Saugus will present its most gruesome yet funny show ever: Evil Dead The Musical. This show 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. WARNING: AN IMMATURE SHOW FOR A MATURE AUDIENCE (CONTAINS BLOOD, ADULT LANGUAGE, SEXUAL THEMES, AND IS ALL AROUND PRETTY GROSS)
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!
There are six performances during the middle two weekends of October: On October 11-12-13 and 18-19-20, 2024. Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:00 PM, and Sunday matinees at 2:00 PM. Tickets will be on sale in September. The location is the Theatre Company of Saugus home at the American Legion Post 210 / 44 Taylor Street / Saugus, Massachusetts 01906.
Evil Dead is directed and choreographed by Jason Hair-Wynn, who led the TCS production of Little Shop of Horrors in 2023. The music director is Shane Stecher. The stage manager is Ally Lewis. The production team includes assistant choreographer Jill Tokac, set designer Mark Damon (Sr.), fight choreographer Amanda O’Donnell, costume designers Vanessa Phelon and Hannah Clifford, props designer Patrick Cleary, and lighting designer Billy Thompson.
