Launching on Thursday, October 11 at El Cid in Los Angeles, I Know What You Did Last Summer: The Unauthorized Musical will take you all the way back to the Summer of 1997 in Southport, North Carolina, when best friends Julie, Ray, Helen and Barry were out having fun, drinking, partying, running people over, and getting away with murder.
Described as “an immersive musical love letter to the iconic slasher film,” the musical’s engagement will last seven weeks, with shows throughout October and November.
Set to a playlist of ’90s B-sides from Eve 6, Eagle-Eye Cherry, Third Eye Blind, The Verve Pipe, and more, I Know What You Did Last Summer: The Unauthorized Musical promises to have you singing and screaming your heart out. And, yes, Julie obviously sings Jennifer Love Hewitt’s How Do I Deal, as heard on the sequel soundtrack. Because of course.
The musical will star Scott Porter (NBC’s Friday Night Lights) as The Fisherman/Ben Willis; Bianca Gisselle as Julie James; Ryan Sutton Stevens as Ray Bronson; Greer Grammer (MTV’s Awkward) as Helen Shivers; Brian Logan Dales (Singer/songwriter of The Summer Set/DALES) as Barry Cox; Matthew Scott Montgomery (Disney Channel’s So Random!) as Max Gillespie; and Alli Miller as both Elsa Shivers and Sunny Egan.
I Know What You Did Last Summer: The Unauthorized Musical is presented by El Cid with Artistic Producer, Joey Bybee and Ross’ Pretty Bizarre Productions. It was adapted for the stage by Jordan Ross (Cruel Intentions: The Musical), with music direction by Andrew Orbison and arrangements by Elmo Zapp. Joey Bybee directs.
