Open Bar Theatricals to Present Encore Production of GRUDGICAL

Open Bar Theatricals will present an Encore Presentation of Aaron Michael Krueger and Peej Mele's Grudgical: The Parody Musical as the final production in their 2015 First Round Fellowship series. Performances will be in the Royal Theatre at The Producers Club on Thursday, October 29 at 2 and 7pm, and Friday, October 30 at 8pm.

Grudgical: The Parody Musical, based on the worldwide hit film franchise "Ju-on: The Grudge," sets out to tell its own story. They say that when a person dies in a state of extreme emotion, that spirit lingers in the place of its demise, cursing all who pass through. That is exactly what happens to Sarah Michelle Gellar and her cohorts as they all come together at the local ramen shop, Tastey Ramen 2. It may not end well for everyone, but our heroine finally comes face to face with a duo of infamous antagonists, and maybe learns a few things about herself along the way.

This staging will be a revised version based upon the reading presented earlier this summer at Theaterlab. The new cast includes Neil Dingow, Apryl Higgins, Yoko Hyun, Sharon Lam, Jason Long, Lora Nicolas, Tríona O'Callaghan, Jay Paranada, Kevin Scott, and Tomo Watanabe. Hyun and Paranada are appearing courtesy of Actors' Equity Association. This is an Equity approved Showcase.

The Producers Club is located at 358 W 44th Street. For tickets, visit www.eventbrite.com/e/grudgical-the-parody-musical-tickets-18813114532.
