Jason Blum Hosts Special ‘Paranormal Activity’ Performance on Broadway Next Week
Jason Blum to Host Paranormal Activity Performance on Broadway
Jason Blum, the founder of Blumhouse, is set to host a special performance of the play Paranormal Activity at the August Wilson Theatre in New York City. This event is part of a limited 20-week run, which will open on August 25, after a week-long preview period. The performance will be held on August 26, and Blum will be in attendance to witness the show.
As a producer on the show, Blum has been instrumental in bringing the play to life. The play is an adaptation of the popular found-footage horror movie franchise, which has generated over $900 million at the global box office. The story, written by Levi Holloway and directed by Felix Barrett, reimagines the modern ghost story with an intimacy that only live theatre can provide.
The play premiered at the Leeds Playhouse in 2024 and later transferred to the Ambassadors Theatre in London’s West End, where it received a Laurence Olivier Award nomination for Best Entertainment or Comedy Play. The story follows James (Travis A. Knight) and Lou (Cher Álvarez) as they move from Chicago to London to escape their past, only to discover that places aren’t haunted, people are.
The cast of the play includes Shannon Cochran and Eva Kaminsky, who will be performing alongside Travis A. Knight and Cher Álvarez. The play is set to run for a limited time, and fans of the horror movie franchise are expected to flock to see the live adaptation.
Blumhouse Atomic Monster and Paramount Pictures are producing the play, with the eighth installment of the franchise set to hit theaters early next summer. The play is a must-see for fans of the horror genre, and the special performance hosted by Jason Blum is an event not to be missed.
