Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy now belongs to a new generation on the edge. With music by Jack Antonoff and movement by Tony Award winner Sonya Tayeh (Moulin Rouge), previews begin September 26 for a strictly limited engagement.

AMC'S "SNOWPIERCER" EXECUTIVE PRODUCER ALISSA BACHNER (Book Interview) - The final season of Tomorrow Studios' hit drama, "Snowpiercer," starring Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs, is currently airing Sundays on AMC and streaming on AMC+! Set more than seven years after the world has become a frozen wasteland, "Snowpiercer" centers on the remnants of humanity who inhabit a perpetually moving train, with 1001 cars, that circles the globe. Class warfare, social injustice and the politics of survival play out in this riveting television adaptation based on the graphic novel series and film. Alissa Bachner, Tomorrow Studios executive and a show EPs, is available for virtual interviews.

“HITPIG!” FILMMAKERS (Book Interview) - In theaters Nov 1, the all-new animated film HITPIG! features the voices of Jason Sudeikis, Lilly Singh, Rainn Wilson, RuPaul, Flavor Flav, Hannah Gadsby, Anitta and more. Based on Pulitzer Prize-winning author Berkeley Breathed’s New York Times bestseller Pete & Pickles, “HITPIG!” follows Hitpig (Jason Sudeikis), a clever bounty hunting pig who catches escaped animals and returns them to their owners. Filmmakers David Feiss (“Minions: The Rise of Gru”) and Cinzia Angelini (“Mila,” “Minions”), book author/executive producer Berkeley Breathed, and music composer Isabella Summers (Florence & the Machine) will be available for virtual interviews to discuss the film.

SPOOKY MARKETING STUNTS  - We’re big believers that Halloween is a brilliant time for marketing — we’ve been reading about some creative (and scary!) initiatives and wanted to share a round-up. First, Jimmy Fallon’s Tonightmares will takeover Rockefeller Center with a haunted maze from Sept 20-Oct 31. The experience will bring to life the host of ‘The Tonight Show’s’ deepest nightmares — 10 chilling rooms from a cornfield and an abandoned subway. Press & Influencers can reach out via their site. As we head into the film’s big sequel, “Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice” The AfterLife Experience comes alive in Hollywood from now through Oct 6. At the experience, you’ll grab an Afterlife Passport, take a seat in the Waiting Room and be immersed into the strange and unusual world of the Recently Deceased. Then Hulu celebrates the return of “Only Murders in the Building” with escape rooms in LA & NY. Fans will be able to step into the shoes of their favorite amateur sleuths for a game that’s filled with mystery and suspense. **Just a separate PR idea: would be cute to see other casts go through these experiences — for photo, social, collab opps!**

SHOP RAT BY EMILIA PETRARCA (Newsletter) - As we head into NY Fashion week, we wanted to highlight the work of one of our favorite fashion-centric newsletters. Shop Rat is written by Emilia Petrarca, who was previously a Senior Fashion Writer at The Cut, W Magazine and worked with high-profile bloggers like Garance Doré and Leandra Medine of Man Repeller. She covers the fun, original and unusual stories in fashion — check out her designer garbage can issue for a good laugh. If we were marketing a fashion forward TV show or film, this would be one of our first stops.
