ATTACK OF THE ZOMBIES
By Tim Kelly
Conceptual Direction
by Carlos-Manuel
This year the Drama Club’s Halloween theme is “Zombie Night.” They've located an abandoned farmhouse near their community college. Everything would have gone according to plan if it hadn’t been for the fact that Vivian wants to spoil the party, or for the fact that the old farmhouse was once occupied by Dr. Thanatos, who tried to re-animate the dead, or for the rumors about unexplained-and un-investigated occurrences happening at the nearby graveyard, or for the fact that zombies seemed to be roaming the premises, or for the fact that the students are not paying attention to the strange sounds coming from, well, everywhere!
Come to think of it, the Drama Club’s Halloween Party should have taken place at their school. But it is too late, the students are surrounded by zombies and there might be little chance of survival.
Suggested Audience: 13 and up.
This production contains gore, loud noises, loud screams, flashing lights, gun shots, zombie stage violence, frightening moments, and cannibalism.
