| In October, New Line Theatre premiered Gilbert & Sullivan’s comic horror operetta The Zombies of Penzance, and so many of our patrons asked if they could get a copy of the script or music.
NOW YOU CAN!
You knew those zombies couldn’t stay dead! Also, Scott Miller and John Gerdes, who created The Zombies of Penzance, are licensing the show for further productions, and inquiries have come in from companies across the country, including two Gilbert & Sullivan societies! You can read more about The Zombies of Penzance, its (totally not true) backstory, and its incredible reception, here. You can check out the Zombies of Penzance script here. You can check out the Zombies of Penzance piano-vocal score here.

New Line has given birth to several world premiere musicals over the years and has brought back to life several shows that were not well served by their original New York productions. Altogether, New Line has produced 86 musicals since 1991, and the company has been given its own entry in the Cambridge Guide to American Theatre and the annual Theater World. New Line receives funding from the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency. For other information, visit New Line Theatre’s full-service website at www.newlinetheatre.com.
