About Paranormal Activity
Get Paranormal Activity tickets on TodayTix to see the cult film reimagined for the stage in a thrilling, fresh production. In this version, a young couple, James and Lou, move from Chicago across the pond to London for a new start, but old troubles follow them. As the two characters settle into their new home, Lou is certain that something is off, leading both to eventually grapple with the same truth: it's not places that are haunted, it's people.
Experience a jolt of horror in Paranormal Activity in New York City. Paranormal Activity plays at the August Wilson Theatre on Broadway and features intense scares, jaw-dropping illusions, and a familiar story told anew. The 2007 indie film became a breakout hit, filmed for $15,000 and raking in hundreds of millions at the box office. The found footage nature of the film lent it an intimacy, and a fear factor: somehow, the hyperreal became supernatural. That translates to the stage in this adaptation, which is ready to terrify bold audiences hungry for a rush.
