“Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors” Show Seeking Cast
Actors sought for production of “Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors”. Please see the breakdown below. About the project: Ever wondered what would happen if you took Bram Stoker’s legendary vampire tale and put it into a blender with Mel Brooks, Monty Python, and The 39 Steps? That’s just what happens in this lightning-fast, laugh-out-loud, 90-minute, gender-bending romp. When her sister Mina falls ill with a mysterious disease of the blood, Lucy Westfeldt and her fiancé, Jonathan Harker, enlist the help of famed female vampire hunter Doctor Jean Van Helsing. Their hunt for the dangerous and sexy Count Dracula abounds with clever wordplay and quick-change antics. Five actors play over a dozen roles in this bloodcurdlingly hilarious send-up of the literary classic. Additional info: Roles for three men and two women. Actors will read from the script. Rehearsals will begin Saturday, September 14; Performances are October 18 through November 3. If you are interested, please apply.
