Review: Midnight Radio’s ‘Night of the Living Dead N’At’

Pittsburgh is known as the birthplace of the modern zombie movie and a top choice for Halloween movies. So it isn’t surprising that Bricolage Production Company chose to parody Night of the Living Dead, a classic horror film directed by George A. Romero and shot in and around Pittsburgh. Bricolage Production Company’s Night of the Living Dead N’At opened Midnight Radio’s fourteenth season in residency at City Theatre, and there is no shortage of zombies, raunchy humor, and Pittsburgh references. Night of the Living Dead N’At is a must-see treat (with a few tricks) for anyone who loves horror movies and enjoys the playful humor of a good parody.

Allegheny County’s smaller municipalities have a practical opportunity with artificial intelligence. The same systems that can help a stretched staff draft a routine notice or compare paperwork can also send an authoritative-looking mistake to a resident.
