Photos: ROMERO & JULIET: A Zombie Rock Musical Hits the Stage in Pittsburgh
The zombie rock musical was staged at the Greer Cabaret Theater.
ROMERO & JULIET, a zombie rock musical, completed a sold-out world premiere run at the Greer Cabaret Theater in Pittsburgh. Check out photos of the production.
The production reimagines Shakespeare’s story in Verona, Pennsylvania, incorporating elements inspired by cult horror films and the cinematic legacy of George Romero.
Set during a Friday the 13th music festival called Deadstock in September 1985, the musical follows Romero, a regional guardsman and distant relative of the filmmaker, who meets zombie Juliet amid the chaos. The original score draws from the sound of 1980s pop artists including Madonna, Bon Jovi, George Michael, Boy George, and Jim Steinman.
Written by Scott Logsdon and Aaron Gandy, ROMERO & JULIET was previously presented in a sold-out concert at The Cutting Room in New York in November 2025, following its initial concert premiere in Latrobe earlier that year. Zombie makeup effects are designed by Christopher Patrick, with images of the effects withheld until after the official opening.
Logsdon’s Broadway credits include performing with the national company of LES MISÉRABLES as an originating company member and on Broadway. His writing credits include STICKS & STONES with John McDaniel, presented in concert starring Audra McDonald for Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation and Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. Gandy’s composing credits include THE CRINOLYNNS, A CRINOLYNNS CHRISTMAS, LOVE(r)EVOLUTION, SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, SAMANTHA SINGLE-HANDED, ACEY DEUCEY, and HUXLEY ANN.
