Photo Coverage: Couple Get Engaged Onstage at EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL

The undead were prowling the Strip this weekend as EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL rolled into the beginning of its second year on the strip, complete with new choreography, bugger and better props and set touches, and more blood than ever before. This past Saturday, however, it was a couple from Arkansas who stole the show. They arrived as boyfriend and girlfriend, and left as fiancees.

"About a week ago I got a request from Joseph Wolowsky. He was coming to the show and wanted to propose to his girlfriend onstage. They are big EVIL DEAD fans and he wanted to make us a part of their special occasion," said Sirc Michaels, producer and director of EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL, "and we were excited to figure out a way to make that happen. It was a surprise for Elizabeth Morgan, Joseph's girlfriend, and we needed to make sure it stayed that way."

The team behind The Vegas Strip's bloodiest show worked with Wolowsky on exactly how, when, and where the big event would take place to ensure maximum excitement and also maintain the element of surprise he was looking for.

After all the preparations, on Saturday 7/27/13, during intermission, the emcee called Wolowsky onstage under the pretense of winning a special prize. Wolowsky made his way to the stage, with his girlfriend, where after a few moments of talk, the emcee gave Wolosky the mic and the proposal took place. There were tears and hugs and, maybe most importantly of all, she said yes.

The cast and crew of EVIL DEAD extend their warmest wishes for the newly engaged couple, and thank them for letting the show be a part of their special moment.
