Ready to play a game… with show tunes? SAW: The Musical, The Unauthorized Parody of Saw, slices its way onto The Lincoln stage later this month for one hilariously twisted night only. This off-Broadway horror parody reimagines the cult-classic thriller with a bloody dose of dark comedy, catchy songs and a whole lot of bodily fluids. Follow Adam and Lawrence as they belt their way through the infamous bathroom trap, uncover secrets and maybe even find love (yes, really). It’s Little Shop of Horrors meets Avenue Q, equal parts absurd, raunchy and oddly heartwarming. Not for the squeamish… but perfect for anyone who loves their musicals with a side of mayhem. Tickets are available now! Fri, June 27th, 8:00 p.m., The Lincoln, 1615 Central Ave, $36.57+.
