This Halloween season, join us for the world premiere of The Brain That Wouldn’t Die! (The Musical), an all-original production inspired by the cult classic 1960s film. Blending humor, horror, and unforgettable songs, this inventive theatrical experience follows a pioneering scientist as he embarks on a groundbreaking head transplant experiment. This reimagined version elevates the campy B-movie to new heights, delving into the twisted consequences of unchecked ambition, the fight for body autonomy, and the darker side of love.
NOTE: The musical tackles a variety of themes through a satirical and campy lens. While it contains moments of dark humor and unsettling situations, they are presented in a way that highlights the absurdity of the scenarios, keeping with the show’s B-movie inspiration.
At the helm of this production is Carla Margolis, a performer, composer, and vocal teacher whose diverse talents are the driving force behind this show. With a rich background in jazz, classical music, and theater, Carla brings her extensive experience to the table in her first full-length musical. Her unique ability to blend genres and her passion for storytelling shine in this production, which promises to be both a nostalgic romp and a deeply resonant experience for modern audiences. Star Jelly Performance Company, founded by Carla Margolis, is dedicated to enriching the local arts scene through high-quality, professional-level productions.
