|
The Steve Allen Theater announces with some dread this Halloween season's big, big, funny, funny, bloody, bloody play! Knock Knock, Who's DEAD?! stars a sterling ensemble cast of L.A. alternative comedians and a REAL GHOST. Knock Knock, Who's DEAD?! tells the chilling tale of a mansion full of crazy idiots trying to solve multiple homicides and the increasingly complicated theft of the World's Most Beautiful (and Valuable) Painting. Lord Westwood Wombweller just wants to unveil his new painting and have it appraised by his insurance agent...but he has to contend with his uncooperative servants, his suspicious twin daughters, a creepy lady psychic, an incompetent LAPD detective, a manic jungle explorer, and an angry ghost...with a giant erection! Not to mention a rash of MURDERS-MOST-HILARIOUS! And meanwhile, our poor actors have to contend with the fact that they are all bickering, drunken, barely-functioning cretins. But when the cast of the play-within-the-play starts turning up dead, the show can barely hold together at its seams!!! Knock Knock, Who's DEAD?! is a wicked send-up of murder mystery conventions, a heartless satire of dinner theater, a fast-paced farce and a black comedy about a bunch of dumb-dumbs falling over!!! EVERYONE WHO'S EVER BEEN FUNNY IS IN IT!!! Knock Knock, Who's DEAD?! brings together the brightest stars of L.A. underground comedy! The hysterical (and dead) emsemble cast features Susan Burke, Blaine Capatch, Michael Cassady, Davey Johnson, Ann Maddox, Alice Pine, Linda Pine, Jonah Ray, Amy Seimetz, and Chris Stangl. Scheduled SPECIAL GUEST STARS include Boris Hamilton, Pat Healy, Ron Lynch, and Brendon Small! Knock Knock, Who's DEAD?!, an original murder mystery for people who hate murder mysteries...and also love them, is written and directed by Christopher Stangl. SEEING IT MEANS WITNESSING MURDER! |
