PRESS FOR DIAMOND DEAD!
“Who says zombies can't rock? …. Landless has put together a spunky little production.
It comes across like the eager nephew of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," flaunting its
tacky habits and urging the audience to join in.”
—Nelson Pressley, The Washington Post
“Romero’s camp-spooky influence has been as well-preserved as the undead who rock
the stage… The songs are catchy, could-be classics bathed in smoke-machine plumes,
but the real story is woven in between the numbers, told in well-executed animated
flashbacks and revealed through the petty squabbles that plague all bands, even those
that don’t carry baggage from the afterlife…. The love story between frontman Dr.
Diabolicus (played as a cross between Edward Scissorhands and Michael Hutchence by
a brooding Andrew Lloyd Baughman) and Aria (Rachel Anne Warren) rises above its own
self-mockery, and their “Crash Test Dummies in Love” is equal parts funny and tender.”
—Anne Marson, Washington City Paper
“There are the stirrings of a cult phenomena... It's the world premiere of Landless
Theatre Company's stage adaptation of the film Diamond Dead… Every player in the
piece carries his or her own weight and together all sound like a rock & roll band who
have been performing for some time… So put on your whitest shade of pale makeup,
dress in your blackest attire, and take the Goth in you out for a night on the town!”
