'Maul of the Dead' by Mitch Brian

Australasian Premier Infectious lunacy. A Comedy Horror, drenched in satire & melodrama. Audition - 6th February 2011, 11am. @ Mandurah Senior College Performing Arts- Education Drive Mandurah. 5 Males, 4 Females (ages to look 18 - 45) and 25 Zombies (any sex, ages from 16 to 70 - but will consider under 16s if their parent/gardian is involved) It’s time to celebrate the era of polyester, disco, punk rock and platform shoes! The year is 1978 and the dead rise once again to terrorize in the infectious lunacy of, ‘Maul of the Dead’ by Mitch Brian and ignited & transformed by award winning director, Jenny M Ferguson (Chuckle chuckle). Six strangers take refuge in an abandoned shopping mall, only to find zombies behind every mannequin and planter. Among the motley crew of survivors are a perfume counter girl, two high-powered SWAT team agents, a local TV weather woman, a suburban punk chick who is still in love with the boy from the record store … now a zombie! and a chopper dude in a deadly paradise of consumer goods as the world crumbles around them. As ravenous hoards attack the frail security gate separating the living from the walking dead, the survivors make a desperate bid for weapons and supplies, eventually forming a makeshift family amidst the consumer trappings of the 1970s. But paradise is short-lived as betrayal, false identities and infection from a zombie bite threaten the belief that "there's got to be a morning after." Danger lurks behind every mannequin in a play that blends horror, satire and melodrama with punk rock and disco music into "a whirlwind of zombie mayhem."
