Announcing auditions for the October 2025 production of... 

DRACULA: A COMEDY OF TERRORS

By Gordon Greenberg and Steve Rosen
Directed by Ron Warren

Saturday and Sunday 8/2 and 8/3 from 11 AM to 2 PM

ABOUT THE PLAY

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.
