Elizabeth Yackel-Juleen of Windom in Augustana's 'Zombie Prom'

2012 Feb 23

Elizabeth Yackel-Juleen of Windom, Minn., will perform as 'Ginger/Secretary/Ramona Merengue' in the Augustana Theatre Department's spring Main Stage show, Zombie Prom. The show will run March 1-3 and 8-10 at 7:30 p.m. in the Edith Mortenson Center Theatre on campus.

This student-designed production brings the "fabulous fifties" back to life - and a few other things that should have stayed dead. The show, by John Dempsey and Dana P. Rowe after a story by Dempsey and Hugh M. Murphy, tells the story of teenage love gone horribly wrong and is approved for the whole "nuclear" family.

The show is completely designed, produced and performed by students under the supervision of Augustana faculty: RJ Fitzsimmons, Jennifer Shouse-Klassen and Dr. Scott Johnson.
