About Menace of the Morgue
The peace between humans and zombies is tenuous. The technology they use to communicate is awkward. An innocent teen, daughter of a famous scientist, falls for a boy from the wrong side of the grave. Lust, drugs, gore, bigotry, and wrong science fill this high-energy show that is perfect for the Halloween season and theater enthusiasts.

The shorter, family-friendly variation, titled Doctor Menace's Family Variety Hour of Zombies, has matinee performances every Sunday in October at 1:00 and 3:00 PM, October 6-27, 2013, at Theatre 82. Tickets are $10 in advance and $14 at the door. Click here for more information.
