In Episode 2 of Balcony Baddies, Jaelynn and Weller break down Paranormal Activity, the new horror play at the August Wilson Theatre.

Written by Levi Holloway and directed by Felix Barrett, it's an original story set in the world of the hit film franchise, about a married couple haunted in their home. It comes to Broadway from the West End, where it was Olivier Award nominated, and it's playing a strictly limited run through January 3, 2027. Is it actually scary? Does this stage-to-screen adaptation live up to its franchise legacy? Does it have a shot at Tony recognition? Listen to find out, with a major spoiler warning upfront!

TELL US: Have you seen Paranormal Activity yet, and did it get you? Drop it in the comments!

Welcome to Balcony Baddies! We're Jaelynn and Weller, two recent Syracuse University musical theatre graduates, and this season we're seeing every show on Broadway from the balcony, then coming home to break it all down through the lens of young artists just getting their feet in the door, all in the lead-up to the 2027 Tony Awards.

In Episode 1, we walk through the entire 2026-27 Broadway season, show by show: what we're excited about, what we're unsure about, and what we know absolutely nothing about!

SUBSCRIBE, and tell us in the comments: Which show on the 2026-27 season are YOU most excited for? Which one are we sleeping on? And if you're a producer of Other Desert Cities... we'd love tickets.
