After a powerful debut that left audiences spellbound, Screaming for Life returns to the Off-Broadway circuit this fall, reigniting the stage with raw emotion, striking visuals, and fearless performances.
Helmed by award-winning filmmaker Deric Taouil in his directorial stage debut, the production runs October 24 at 7:30 p.m.; October 25 at 2:30 p.m. and 7 p.m.; and October 26 at 2:30 p.m. This limited engagement promises a gripping, immersive experience that blurs the line between theatre and cinema.
The ensemble cast features an exceptional roster of talent - Kendall Scolum, Sam Velletri, Gabriella Palminteri, Stephen Multari, Alissia Lombardi, Alex Murray, and Harry Schiavi - each bringing magnetic depth and emotional truth to the story's core.
At the heart of Screaming for Life is Gab, a former sales representative turned sculptor who sacrifices everything for his art, only to confront the one thing he cannot shape: the scream within. The result is a haunting, deeply human exploration of creation, loss, and the will to begin again.
"Screaming for Life is a reflection of what happens when we stop running from ourselves," says Taouil. "It's not just a play - it's an awakening."
With its poetic writing, cinematic intensity, and unforgettable performances, Screaming for Life stands poised to make a lasting impact on New York's Off-Broadway landscape this season.
