Controversial material has always made great theatre, but this spring Off Broadway better WATCH OUT! Revelation: The Musical is bounding in and testing the limits by tackling the final book of the Bible (verbatim) and turning it into a lively, fast paced, out-of-the-box musical!
Ceithamer noted, "I wanted to expose audiences to this wild and hopeful text. The musical doesn’t interpret the source material, but presents it verbatim in a highly creative way - imagining ways to bring the four horses of the apocalypse, a seven headed beast, and a giant harlot to life on stage isn’t easy - but sure has been a lot of fun! I think audiences will really be inspired and surprised by what they experience."
REVELATION: THE MUSICAL debuts May 9 Off Broadway at The Players Theatre (115 Macdougal St.).
REVELATION is a play within a play. The audience is watching a group of rebel artists during the time of the apocalypse presenting an underground theatre piece breathing life into John the Apostle's cryptic and mysterious text. Revelation leaves audiences of all ages entertained, inspired and ready for stimulating conversation.
REVELATION is conceived, composed and directed by Dustin Ceithamer of 20th Century Fox's upcoming film X-Men: The New Mutants releasing summer 2019.
