The German production of ZOMBIE PROM



 

From the director 
and translator of 
the German 
production:

Markus Weber

There was a pre show. The audience had to enter the theatre through a 150 meter long dark  tunnel. They were inspected and examined, got sprayed with security gas, got fresh air, had to answer stupid questions and were served toxic drinks ... a decontamination of sorts.  That's why I sent you  the pre show pics as well.

The show was then played in a "high security block."   At the beginning of the show the guards had the audience practice rules and regulations in case of emergency.  The audience was seated on movable podest so that we were able to move them in ever new situations ... 

Toffee's hair turned white because of shock when she heard about Jonny's death ... for the prom she dies her hair black again to be what she used to be.

Delilah Strict was played by one of the most known actors of the Meininger State Theatre.  We had him made up as the perfect American Star and called him/her Zaza Gabor.  Before the opening night we flew him in by helicopter and he/she resided at the biggest Hotel of the town and refused to give interviews.  The press bought it and was a bit angry when they finally found out the set up.  We gave him "Hollywood breasts" which he even exposed during the show.  Everyone believed they were real!

Ricardo's show [note: that character's name changed to Eddie Flagrante for the off-Broadway production] was powered up with video so he had the possibility to directly go to the high school and anywhere else via video.
