“MAKING NECROPHILIAC” - A Musical Comedy For everyone old enough to know better... but young enough to dream
Ottawa, October 5, 2008
Necro... what?
Live music – from blues to burlesque to boogie to Broadway – and a wickedly funny story, “Making Necrophiliac” is all about entertainment. Sing-along tunes, dancing in the aisles, a dash of schlock horror and a lively bunch of characters bring this romantic musical comedy to life, with an offbeat modern edge and plenty of love, laughter and rollicking good fun.
The show combines the unconventional humor of writer/lyricist Maureen Chaume with an original score by veteran musical entertainer Guy Del Villano (piano, guitar, and accordion). International performers Francine Laroche and Amanda Strawn join Guy and the cast onstage, to lend their sizzling vocal talents as the Fabulous Doo-Wop Gals.
“Making Necro's” stellar cast includes Sherry Thurig as Desiree Devine; James Murchison as Beauregard Blake; and Helen Roos as Frau Ingrid Schultz. Master percussionist and musician Laszlo Szijarto (guitarist/hand drummer for naked i) is guitar cat SlowSlide Sam; and funnyman Marc Grandmaison plays the ubiquitous Howie the Handyman.
This is “Making Necro's” fourth run in Ottawa. “Making Necrophiliac” goes up at the Arts Court Theatre, 2 Daly Avenue, Ottawa on October 17, 18 and 19 at 8pm nightly. Tickets are $25 in advance or $30 at the door and are available at the Arts Court Box Office. Mature content, recommended for ages 14+. For more information visit www.makingnecro.com
