11/29/2015 Dracula
November 20 – December 12, 2015 Thursdays - Saturdays at 8 p.m., Sundays at 6 p.m.
Different Stages opens its 2015-2016 season with Dracula by Steven Dietz from the novel by Bram Stoker. An ominous presence haunts Lucy Seward's dreams. A ship founders on the Whitby rocks, its crew nowhere to be found. Rumors of a monstrous black dog spread panic among the locals. An inmate of the local asylum raves about the arrival of his 'Master'... They are right to be afraid. Count Dracula has arrived in England. As their loved ones fall victim, a determined group led by Professor Van Helsing hunts the Count through the length of England and back to his castle in Transylvania. Rich with both humor and horror, this play paints a wickedly theatrical picture of Stoker's famous vampire.
Dracula is directed by Melissa Vogt (Quills, Mauritius) and features voice actor JM Specht as the Count. Playing Lucy and Mina are Jessica Riley (Veronica's Room) and Taylor Flanagan (When the Rain Stops Falling). Appearing as the crazed Renfield is Charles Stites (Fat Pig). Playing Dr. Van Helsing, Dr. Steward and Jonathan Harker are Beau Paul (TheInvention of Love), Trey Deason (Stars and Barmen) and Will Douglas (DNA). Rounding out the cast as Vixens, Maids and Attendants are Jessica Medina (The House of Bernarda Alba), Bridget Farias (Medea) Sara Blair (Boeing-Boeing) and Craig Kanne (Mauritius).
