Toronto, ON – Toronto can’t get enough zombies and deadites! Starvox Entertainment today announced a new block of tickets on sale for Evil Dead – The Musical adding five more weeks of performances and extending the run of the popular show through December 22. Evil Dead - The Musical begins previews Thursday, October 24 at the Randolph Theatre (736 Bathurst St.), with opening night set for Tuesday, October 29, just in time for Halloween.
Fans of the show and those who haven’t yet had a chance to see it can now snap up tickets for the newly extended performances scheduled Tuesday, November 19 through Sunday, December 22, including brand new tickets added to the highly coveted Splatter Zone. In fact, the Splatter Zone has been such a hot ticket that all Splatter Zone seats for the first four weeks of the run were sold out within 20 minutes of being on sale. To accommodate ticket demand, the Splatter Zone capacity has been expanded to include 60 seats.
Looking for some terror-inducing fun on Halloween? Special performances have been slated for October 31 at 7 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. If you dare, sit in Splatter Zone, the ultimate destination for flying limbs, rolling heads and gushing (fake) blood.

About Evil Dead - The Musical:
This musical first glimpsed the light of day in Toronto, where early workshop engagements played to capacity and beyond. While local mainstream theatre audiences flocked to the show, diehard fans of the Evil Dead film series made pilgrimages from across North America to witness the birth of a new cult hit. The popular workshop production enjoyed two sold-out runs at Toronto’s Tranzac Club in 2003 before heading off to Montreal in 2004 as part of the 22nd Just For Laughs Festival. It opened off-Broadway at New World Stages in November 2006 and was produced by Jenkay LLC, Jeffrey Latimer Entertainment, and Just for Laughs Live. Evil Dead - The Musical returned to Toronto in 2007 for a record-breaking run of more than 300 performances at the now defunct Diesel Playhouse. The production will enjoy a remount at Toronto’s Randolph Theatre beginning October 24, 2013. This production is slated for an American tour following the Toronto run.
