The Kent-Meridian High School drama students are taking on a scary theme for their latest play.

The Night of the Living Dead is adapted from the famous 1968 George Ramero film, which tells the story of a group of people seeking shelter in an old farm house from an onslaught of zombies. The occupants not only have to fight the zombies, but they also have to overcome the differences they have with each other.

The shows are Nov. 16, 17 and 18 at 7 p.m. in the Kent-Meridian Performing Arts Center. Tickets are available at the door and are $6 for students with ASB cards and $8 for adults.

The performing arts center is located at 10020 S.E. 256th St. For more information, call 253-373-7405.
