Evil Dead the MusicalBook & lyrics by George Reinblatt
Based on characters created by Sam Raimi
October 29 - November 8, 2026
In this cult classic, 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 gory? No. 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.
Content Advisory: Evil Dead The Musical is a campy, over-the-top horror-comedy intended for mature audiences (ages 16+). The production features frequent strong language, crude sexual humor, theatrical violence, and simulated gore.
Effects & Seating Note: This performance utilizes strobe lights, haze, loud noises, and realistic stage weapons. Audience members seated in the designated "Splatter Zone" will be sprayed with water-based fake blood.
Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
