Dante is Set to Tread the Boards in a ‘Devil May Cry’ Stage Play Next Year
If ever a game series could be brazen enough to take to the stage in a musical action extravaganza, you’d be pretty sure Capcom’s Devil May Cry would be high up on that list.
From March 1, 2019 in Japan, the stylish hack n’ slash series does indeed become a live stage play entitled Devil May Cry: The Live Hacker and runs until March 10.
The show promises to include hi-octane stylish action and a live band performance. Hopefully, some interaction between the two things too please a la Devil May Cry 3’s guitar-slinging. Who wouldn’t want to see this done live?
The 13 performances are directed by Jun Yuriko, who previously masterminded the 2015 Resident Evil stage play (aka Biohazard: The Stage).
The cast will include Dante and Lady, with Ryoma Baba playing the white-haired demon slayer.
Tickets (on sale here) are up for a not unreasonable 9,800 yen for premium and 7,800 yen general admission. Registration for the limited lottery is set to begin November 10 at 10:00am JST through November 25 at 11:59pm JST. The results for ticket winners will be announced on November 29 after 1:00pm JST. So if you happen to be heading to Japan next year and want something interesting to do, there’s something.
Of course, if you’d prefer something a bit more homely for your Devil May Cry fix, Devil May Cry 5 is releasing on PS4, Xbox One, and PC during that run on March 8, 2019.

Bloody Disgusting and Creep I.E. Con Screening ‘Child’s Play’ with Brad Dourif, Fiona Dourif, and Alex Vincent
Looking for a big event to kick off your Summerween?
Creep I.E. Con, one of Southern California’s biggest horror themed conventions, returns for an Aftermath in 2026 — two months earlier than usual! This weekend, the Ontario Convention Center will house over 30 celebrity guests, 170 vendors, and all kinds of tricks and treats courtesy of Bloody Disgusting.
The main event is Saturday night at the Creep I.E. Cinema featuring a screening of 1988’s Child’s Play with stars Brad Dourif, this week’s Emmy-nominee Fiona Dourif, and Alex Vincent. Note: This is a separately ticketed event within the weekend, so be sure to secure your tickets for the screening and Q&A before they’re all gone.
Beyond the silver screen, Bloody Disgusting will also be hosting panels with stars of the Scary Movie franchise (Tori Spelling, Lochlyn Munro, Simon Rex, Jon Abrahams); return to Spooky World with David Bertolino; take a trip to Woodsboro with Hayden Panettiere; revisit Tales from the Crypt with John Kassir; and go toe to toe with Danny Trejo.
That’s not all. On Saturday at noon PST, we’re hosting an exclusive photo opportunity at our Bloody Disgusting booth with the titular puppet behind Pinocchio Unstrung. Later that afternoon, Eli Roth’s Ice Cream Man will be passing out free cold sweets outside at the top of every hour while supplies last.
It all goes down this Friday, July 10th to Sunday, July 12th — at the Ontario Convention Center in Ontario, California. Tickets are selling out fast — in fact, all VIP passes are sold and off the table — so secure your passes ASAP before it’s too late. After all, you don’t want to miss the first real horror event of the year!
