Acting Out! To Perform Night Of The Living Dead

Acting Out!

Acting Out! is a regional theater company whose past productions include Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and Romeo And Juliet. Their next performance is of Night Of The Living Dead, an adaptation of the iconic zombie film. In this interview Kasey Cox, the founder and artistic director of Acting Out! reveals that the play is faithful to the film, and utilizes the strengths of the performance space by allowing zombies to shamble throughout the audience.

Performances will take place at 7 p.m. on Friday & Saturday, October 17 & 18 at the Capaha Park Band Shell. Tickets may be purchased in advance at this website or at the door.
