Night of the Living Dead

Maverick Theater’s original stage adaptation of Night of the Living Dead is back and celebrating its 20th year! For two decades audiences have made this show part of their Halloween tradition, returning year after year. This year with even more performances! Adapted to the stage by director and theater founder, Brian Newell, from the screenplay by George Romero and John Russo, Night of the Living Dead is a thrilling night of theater.

A group of panicked survivors are barricaded in a deserted farmhouse while a horde of flesh-eating zombies hovers outside their door. In the climatic final scene, a full size truck smashes into the farmhouse, zombies begin to pour into the room as the survivors grab anything they can to defend themselves. The Maverick's Night of the Living Dead is a unique production that captures the feel of cinema and the in-your-face excitement of live theater.
