New Line Theatre presents ZM October 1-24 at The Marcelle!

New Line Theatre opens its 35th season with the American premiere of this gloriously unhinged new meta-musical from certified chaos merchants Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis — the Tony-winning mad geniuses who looked at musical theatre and said, "What if… but weirder?"

Part Walking Dead, part Bat Boy, and part "you probably shouldn't eat that," ZM is a darkly comic fable set in an American small town where a fast-food chain is test-marketing a new sandwich. Which turns customers into zombies. Two brave teenage employees must risk everything to infiltrate corporate headquarters, uncover the truth, and maybe -- just maybe -- ask, "Should we have read the ingredients list?"
