Bringing Gothic Comedy to Life: Jacob A. Zinke on Zom-Bride and Its Journey to the Stage and Beyond
In this episode of Script to Stage with RCP, we sit down with playwright Jacob A. Zinke to explore the fascinating evolution of his gothic horror satire Zom-Bride.
Inspired by Jane Eyre and 1940s gothic horror films, Zom-Bride first came to life on the St. Dunstan’s Theatre stage in 2019. Since then, the story has continued to evolve—most recently appearing at RCP'sTri-County Try Something Staged Reading Festival this spring, and now preparing for its transformation into a radio play on this podcast.
Jacob shares how his experiences, including the Toward an Anti-Racist Michigan Theatre workshop presented by BLAQN, LLC, have changed and shaped this story.
Zom-Bride is available on New Play Exchange
Stay tuned—RCP’s radio show performance of Zom-Bride will be released later this month!
