Re-Animator, the Musical

--way, way, off Broadway (actually, it's in Hollywood). For more, check out their news page.

'Funny. Bloody. Tuneful.'
'Open seating. Come early and sit up front in the "splash zone."'

It's based on the 1985 cult classic, which was in turn based on the story by HP Lovecraft. Now it's a musical. It's the first time I've wished I was close enough to return to Los Angeles for a night. (I went on a school trip in the late 70s and was NOT impressed.) :)

"RE-ANIMATOR" tells the story of Herbert West, a brilliant young medical student who has created a glowing green serum that can bring the dead back to life. What should be a medical breakthrough results in hideous monstrosities and ghastly consequences. "I guess he just wasn't fresh enough," is West's constant refrain as his quest for fresh subjects results in the murders of half the faculty of the medical school.

George Wendt (Norm from 'Cheers'), plays the dean of the medical college. Thanks to Jenny Reiswig (@bmljenny), for the link.
