In October 2007, TheDrillingCompany helped raise money for kid's educational programs at PS87, the neighborhood school around the corner from our theatre space, 78th Street Theatre Lab.

We helmed the haunted house event, which was all about zombies this year!

So please, feel free to take a tour of Ziffler Laboratories with us, a research facility that studies the zombie virus.

Meet Zeke, the zombie who used to be on Wall Street or Oley, the zombie who was a car mechanic in a former life, or Doc (the surgeon), or Heather (the cheerleader). (The Zombies.)

Meet your tour guides through the facility, Dr. Victoria Blankenhoffer and Dr. Stasya Vorobyov. (The Tour Guides.)

Meet your Emergency Team Members. They are on the scene when a zombie escapes and sometimes get bitten themselves! (ETM.)

Meet the hapless zombie victims, lab workers in the wrong place at the wrong time. (The Victims.)

Get your picture taken with a zombie. Don't worry. These won't bite! (Your Picture With a Zombie.)

Or feel free to read the scripted tour. (Of course 90% of the script went out the window when giving a tour to a group of screaming kids!) (Read the script.)

See the participants behind the scenes as they get made-up and turn the school hallway over into an industrial laboratory facility. (Behind the scenes.)

See the early make-up test that was done to perfect the zombie look. Serious business making realistic zombies. (The make-up test.)
