What is the scariest show you've ever seen? — Page 3

Broadway Matt, They had to stop the show mid act. 2 because someone had something wrong and they had to get the paramedics in the theatre and the rest of us evacuated.

It was a great show. They need to bring it to BWY so my friends can see it.

1) Woman in Black. My local theatre did it a few years back, and even though I personally knew the entire cast (all 3 of them), it still scared the hell out of me.

2) Sweeney Todd. Even if you're obsessed with the show and can practically quote the entire thing (like me), if it's staged properly with the right cast, it should scare the piss out of you. i've yet to see a production of it that didn't. (well... maybe one)

3) Cats. I was traumatized at a young age by this show (no joke) so maybe it's just me. The tour came through my town right around my 8th birthday, so my parents took me as a gift. I was sitting right on the aisle, and shortly after the overture started, I got the feeling I wasn't alone. I turned to my left and there was one of the scary cat people perched on my armrest staring at me. It scared me so bad I was screaming and crying and people around us were giving my parents dirty looks. We ended up leaving 10 minutes into the show, and to this day I haven't seen more of the show than that. And I don't plan to either.

For me definitely Deathtrap and Wait Until Dark - two extremely well written, taut shows all superbly acted without benefit of any major special effects.

I would have done that too! Without the crying.
