‘NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD! THE MUSICAL!’

A rock musical by Jordan Wolfe, based on the cult classic film by George A. Romero.

SATURDAY 26 JULY 2025

EVILCORP HORROR MAZE

226 BRUNSWICK ST, FORTITUDE VALLEY


An epic rock musical is coming to Australia, bringing with it a horde of flesh-eating zombies!

Based on the cult classic horror film, this horror musical boasts a witty and terrifying script and a phenomenal rock score played by our live band!

Following the raging success of ‘Evil Dead: The Musical’, director Yasmin Elahi is back with another fantastic horror rock musical.

We are looking for a cast of talented actors who are VERY strong singers, with a rock flavour. This show is faced paced and intense, with actors playing multiple roles and tacking power ballad after power ballad.

This production will contain violence, blood, coarse language, sexual references and horror themes. Most roles require intimacy.

This is a profit-share production. More information will be provided in the audition regarding this.
