Emma Hunton Stars In EXORCISTIC: THE ROCK MUSICAL Off-Broadway
Rock on! Exorcistic: The Rock Musical is returning Off Broadway starring Emma Hunton — of Freeform's Good Trouble — at The Asylum NYC for a limited engagement from Aug. 25 to Nov. 22.
It will feature a rotating cast of celebrity special guests each week, including Lance Bass, Jaime Cepero, Nicci Claspell, Garrett Clayton, Brian Logan Dales, Deanna Giulietti, Frankie Grande, Lena Hall, Ali Kresch, Charlene Incarnate, Lindsay Heather Pearce, Steven Taylor, Sophia Urista, Kirsten Vangsness, Nina West, Marissa Jaret Winokur, Evan Rachel Wood, and more.
Alongside Hunton, the regular company includes Ethan Crystal, Jesse Merlin, Steven Cutts, Michael Shaw Fisher, Leigh Wulff, Jaime Lyn Beatty, Richardson Cisneros-Jones and Hannah Bonnett.
Written by Michael Shaw Fisher, Exorcist: The Rock Musical is a high-octane horror-comedy that premiered Off-Off Broadway last year. It is a self-aware parody that follows a theatre company planning to put on a parody of The Exorcist from stage reading to Broadway. As their quest for fame and money supersedes their art and humanity, they ensure their lead actress, Hunton, gets possessed in the process.
The show won the LA Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Music and Lyrics in 2023. It will be directed by Chadd McMillan and Alli Miller-Fisher and feature Choreography by Camal Pugh. The creative team also includes music director Zach Spound, lighting designer Marciel Greene, prop designer Kelly Stavert, costume designer Chadd McMillan, and intimacy director Rebecca Reaney.
Exorcistic: The Rock Musical is in performances from Aug. 25 to Nov. 22 at The Asylum NYC on East 24th Street. For tickets and more information, visit here.
