Fringelog 2009: For The Love of a Zombie ****

For The Love of a Zombie is a mixed-multimedia play about a farm hand who, through the use of organic pesticides, discovers the truth about the farmgirl he believes he loves. Scenes that take place outside the farm house are portrayed on a large projection screen.

This play, overall, really reminds me of old-school CD-ROM games. Particularly Phantasmagoria. This is definitely not a negative for me, though I suspect it would be for some. The video segments are produced quite well (for a shoestring budget) and are integrated pretty much seamlessly into the play itself. Overall, the play works really well and has a lot of great laughs.

Plus, it’s about zombies, and who can complain about that?
