PARENTAL WARNING: Parents strongly cautioned, due to language and stage gore. This musical is not appropriate for children.

Based on the cult classic movie “Evil Dead”, which tells the story of five friends who take a vacation to a cabin in the woods and accidentally unleash an army of zombies who start turning them all into demons. But it’s a musical, so there’s singing and dancing.

The “Splatter Zone” is a specially-priced seating area, right up front, where you can sit to feel the blood of the undead spray as Ash takes them on in battle.

With Steven Baird, Michael Brick, Winard Britt, Shammara Clarkson, David Colton, Heather Harris, Laura Kavinski, Shannon Riley, and Stephen Yednock.

Ticket prices: $30 Splatter Zone, $22 General Admission, $18 Students/Seniors/Military, $14 Youth (12 and under with adult)

Secret Circus is the story of a traveling circus in 1930’s-era Europe, racing against time to smuggle to safety people deemed physically unacceptable by the rising fascist regime. One refugee, Anya, must confront her own discomfort with the sideshow prodigies of the circus even as she accepts their help in fleeing persecution. It is a touching, exciting, and beautiful show. Secret Circus was last performed in Greenbelt ten years ago, by Camp Encore. The 2015 edition of the show features an expanded story, with additional songs, new dialogue, and enhanced circus production values.

Tickets: $5; advanced sales at 301-397-2208.
