Musical comedy adaptation of Night of the Living Dead, adapted by Tami Dixon and presented by Bricolage Production Company.
Night of the Living Dead N'At opens at The Lillie Theatre on Thursday, October 29, and runs through Sunday, November 15. It's a musical comedy adaptation of the 1968 horror classic, adapted by Tami Dixon and presented by Bricolage Production Company. Jeffrey Carpenter directs, and the show brings in Cello Fury as a musical guest.
The production is part of a season of uniquely Pittsburgh takes on beloved classics, all staged by Bricolage. It arrives at a time of consolidation for the city's stage scene: Pittsburgh CLO and Public Theater have merged into Confluence Theater, and City Theatre has entered into a partnership with Bricolage Theater. The show is presented as part of a local live theater guide that advocates for lowering barriers to the arts.
If you're familiar with the original, you know the setup: a small group of survivors barricaded in a farmhouse while the dead gather outside. This version turns that into a musical comedy, with Tami Dixon's adaptation and Cello Fury on the music. It's a local take on a well-known story, fitting into Bricolage's season of reimagining classics through a Pittsburgh lens.
