The Australian Premiere of Evil Dead the Musical is a schlocky, blood-filled parody of the Evil Dead series and horror movies in general. Self-aware, and not taking itself very seriously, it is well-directed with high production values and a talented cast and crew. The ubiquitous ‘cabin in the woods’ designed by Luke Miller was brought to life by the cast and crew, with lots of pop-up and pop-out surprises. The show was spectacularly lit by Shelly Miller, with a fabulous blend of horror and “show”.
