EXORCISTIC: the Rock Musical

“A HEAD SPINNINGLY GOOD EXORCIST ROMP THAT DOESN’T SUCK C#CKS IN HELL” -Stage and Cinema

“Always delivered with delicious gusto…As with the classic rock-style score and entertaining lyrics, there isn’t a false note among the cast.”-LA WEEKLY

“By the time the bodies are buried, and the guttural expletives and rock & roll exorcism ends, you’ll have had quite an otherworldly experience. It’s got cult following written all over it.” -BROADWAY WORLD

“It’s one of my favorite productions now, and I highly recommend it to anyone who can get behind seeing some fun poked at sacred cinematic cows.” -INSIDE HORROR

“Although I have never seen the movie The Exorcist, I had no trouble following the story and the way the company approached it. It came across perfectly. It was the perfect parody of a movie that changed Hollywood, and a fitting tribute to the (50th) anniversary of the film coming up on June 19. Don’t miss this show” – EXAMINER

BEST MUSICAL WINNER of the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2013 returns ten years later to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of The Exorcist at Hollywood’s Three Clubs.

For a film that premiered 50 years ago (on June 19th, 1973 in NYC) The Exorcist’s influence on cinema is unquestionable. It won two Academy Awards, became Warner Bros highest grossing film to date, and has inspired countless rip-offs. Also, there are the iconic images: the levitation, spiderwalking, the split pea soup, and of course the self-stabbing of a certain part of the anatomy with crucifixes…. (“Let Jesus F%#@! You!” Remember that?) Yes, all these classic quotes make it into this completely original musical, composed in the style of pure 70s ROCK and depicts the eternal fight of Good VS Evil with electric guitars summoning the demons who root in man’s dark corners and sneer in the face of God…

But that’s all hooey, right? No one really believes that demons exist anymore, do they?

Among the chief doubters in this play-within-a play is the Orgasmico Theatre Company. We watch as the dysfunctional company dissects the film’s cultural relevance, its controversial themes, the 1970s mentality/morality, and packs all their pretentious theories all into one big blasphemous rock musical parody that allows them to break the fourth wall and engage the audience…

…But at what cost? The dangerous thing about live theatre is that if Evil really does exist, then no one is safe.
