| Can two teens from Tombtown fend off a zombie onslaught? Will their love survive when one of them doesn’t? San Francisco’s chillingly wacky, endearingly gory pop/rock musical asks: how did these post-mortal youngsters learn to rock so hard? | ||

 This hybrid rock opera is actually a postmodern morality play of blood-curdling hilarity." |

||
| Emerald Rain’s new rock musical Young Zombies in Love is a lot deeper than it first appears. Under the frothy songs and teenagers-in-love fighting-the-zombie-menace pyrotechnics, there’s a lot going on – about dependency in relationships, addiction, and the willing blindness that manifests in groups... As a parable of teen angst, this play is right on the money.” |
