Ticket Info

A cast of Broadway names and up and coming talent will be taking the Cutting Room stage for the New York City concert premiere of the new zombie rock musical ROMERO & JULIET.

Yup. Zombies! Shakespeare! 80s inspired music!

It’s September, Friday the 13th, 1985. Zombies are trying to go mainstream and find acceptance. They despise the filmmaker George Romero for revealing their existence. Public sentiment is running high against Zombies.

When Regional Guardsman Romero George (a distant relative of the filmmaker) meets Juliet (a Zombie) at a music festival called Deadstock, what could possibly go wrong?

Starring as the star-crossed lovers are Chad Marge as Romero and Delilah Jane Dunn as Juliet.

Tony nominee Steven Skybell (CABARET, FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, WICKED, Yiddish FIDDLER) will be one of several Broadway vets joining them. Also in the cast are Caren Lyn Manuel (Tackett,) whose Broadway credits include RENT, HAIR, BROOKLYN and HIGH FIDELITY; Robert DuSold (LES MIS, JEKYLL & HYDE, KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN;) Natalie Joy Johnson (LEMPICKA, LEGALLY BLONDE, KINKY BOOTS;) and Chani Maisonet (SIX National tour, Off Broadway LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, TITANIQUE.) Rounding out the principal cast are Tristan Smith, Max Suwarno, and Vince Tresco. The cast also includes Tyler Evick, Sharon Lita, Andrew McNamara, Emily Lynne Miller, Ray Robinson, and Ava Tyson as the Vocal Majority.

This new musical blends Shakespeare’s classic tragedy, ROMEO & JULIET with elements of the horror classic “Night of the Living Dead,” and features an all new 80s score inspired by Madonna, Bon Jovi, Heart, Laura Brannigan, George Michael, Boy George, Blondie and more. The show features book and lyrics by Scott Logsdon and music by Aaron Gandy, the creators of THE CRINOLYNNS.
