Because I hadn't seen any of the Evil Dead movies, of course I had no idea what to expect. I had heard that it was a spoof off the movies. If any of you know what Strother Theatre looks like inside, it is extremely small. A musical in an extremely enclosed place? I was already wondering how this could be pulled off.
Turns out, it was pulled off very well. Because it was such a small space, they didn't need microphones, and it provided an intimate setting for the audience. I literally felt like I was in 'world' that the musical had created. The musical follows 5 college students who decide to go on vacation in an abandoned cabin in the woods. Sounds like a set up for disaster right? And it is.
The musical was gory, funny, and extremely entertaining. Tickets are still on sale, and there are performances this coming weekend as well. I highly recommend this musical. For those that aren't really in to musicals, definitely see this show. This is not your normal cookie cutter musical. It breaks all the rules.
