The 1968 film NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, which has been called the grandfather of the modern zombie film, tells the story of seven people trapped in a rural farmhouse in western Pennsylvania, alternately hiding from and fighting a large and growing group of living dead ghouls. The story has been remade and retold many times, including a 1988 radio drama.
Partnering with Louisville Public Media with the same creative team that produced last seasons The War of the Worlds, Kentucky Shakespeare will recreate an in-studio performance of this thrilling tale in front of live audiences with actors, musicians, and Foley artists.
The production, directed by Amy Attaway, features an ensemble cast, who each play multiple roles and create the Foley sounds: Laura Ellis as Barbara/Judy/ musician/singer, Dathan Hooper as Ben, Jon Huffman as Harry Cooper, Gayle King on keyboard and vocals, Abigail Bailey Maupin as Helen Cooper, Gregory Maupin as the Narrator, and Matt Street as Johnny/Tom. Donna Lawrence-Downs is the costume designer, Brian Owens is the lighting designer, and Laura Ellis is the sound designer. Maria Allgeier is the stage manager. Throughout the run, various Louisville Public Media personalities will join the cast in supporting roles.
