Adapted for the stage by Jordan Ross (Co-creator of Cruel Intentions: The Musical, The Unauthorized OC Musical) and directed by Joey Bybee, #IKnowMusical – an musical love letter to the iconic slasher film written by Kevin Williamson – wrapped up its sold-out premiere run in November 2018 and returns with a vengeance for the season it was made for. Summer.
Return to Southport, North Carolina. Back when Julie, Ray, Helen and Barry were out having fun, drinking, partying, running people over, and getting away with murder. But, when it becomes clear the truth is no longer six feet under, the friends quickly realize that it’s not over until The Fisherman sings. Literally. Set to a playlist of 90s B-sides from Eve 6, Eagle-Eye Cherry, Third Eye Blind, The Verve Pipe, and more, #IKnowMusical is bound to have you singing and screaming your heart out. And, yes, Julie obviously sings Jennifer Love Hewitt’s How Do I Deal as heard on the sequel soundtrack.
The musical will star Scott Porter as The Fisherman (NBC’s Friday Night Lights, The CW’s Hart of Dixie), Bianca Gisselle as Julie James, Ryan Sutton Stevens as Ray Bronson, Greer Grammer (MTV’s Awkward, The Unauthorized O.C. Musical) as Helen Shivers, Brian Logan Dales (Singer/songwriter of The Summer Set/DALES) as Barry Cox, Matthew Scott Montgomery (Disney Channel’s So Random!) as Max Gillespie, and Alli Miller (Screamlesque) as both Elsa Shivers and Sunny Egan. Connor Weil (MTV’s Scream) and Natalie Masini (Scissorhands) will serve as covers.
I Know What You Did Last Summer: The Unauthorized Musical is presented by Player-Hater Productions with music direction by Andrew Orbison, arrangements and orchestrations by Elmo Zapp, and costumes by Ryann Risner.
