The musical has been awarded eight Tony Awards for its Broadway premiere.

Richard Davis, the playhouse’s artistic director, said they had to add more blood and gore to their stage because ticket sales have been so high this month.

“This is the perfect show for Halloween, that’s one of the reasons why we put it at this time slot. It just will get you in the mood. It’s got creepy organ music and you’ll totally be in the Halloween mood after you’ve seen the show,” said Davis.

To buy tickets, you can call their box office at 814-454-2852 or visit the playhouse’s website.
