'Paranormal Activity' is coming to Broadway this summer
"The show begins performances on August 14 at the August Wilson Theatre ahead of an official opening night on September 15 and it's only sticking around for a limited 20-week engagement. The production arrives after sold-out runs in London's West End, Chicago, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and San Francisco."
"Unlike the original 2007 movie, which famously turned a tiny budget and a lot of strategically placed night-vision cameras into one of the most profitable horror films ever made, the Broadway version tells a completely new story inspired by the franchise. This time, a couple named James and Lou move from Chicago to London, hoping to escape their past, only to discover that "places aren't haunted, people are.""
"The creative team behind the show is stacked: the play is written by Levi Holloway, whose . And perhaps most importantly, the production's illusion design is by Chris Fisher, the Tony-winning illusion designer behind creepy Broadway play developed a cult following in 2023, and directed by Felix Barrett, the immersive-theater mastermind behind Sleep No More Stranger Things: The First Shadow ."
"" Paranormal Activity changed the horror landscape, and bringing the franchise to Broadway allows us to continue expanding that world in a bold and immersive way," said Josh Silverman, president of global products and experiences at Paramount."
