Exorcistic: The Rock Musical to Play Off Broadway

Exorcistic - The Rock Musical
Exorcistic: The Rock Musical is set to make its triumphant return Off Broadway at The Asylum NYC for a limited engagement beginning August 25th, 2025. This bold, high-octane horror-comedy has already garnered accolades, including the LA Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Music and Lyrics in 2023 and the Broadway World NYC Award for Best New Musical Off-Off Broadway in 2024. Audiences can expect a sensational production packed full of shocking Broadway Guest Stars, making every performance a unique experience.

Written by Michael Shaw Fisher, who serves as the book writer, composer, and lyricist, Exorcistic: The Rock Musical features the talented Emma Hunton, known for her role in Freeform’s Good Trouble. The musical is a self-aware parody that creates a chaotic, over-the-top rock musical. This original work promises to deliver a thrilling combination of horror and hilarity, accompanied by some of the most powerhouse rock tunes.

In true Rock and Roll fashion, Exorcistic features a rotating cast of Celebrity Guests each week, creating an incentive for audiences to return again and again.
