Bram Stoker News

'I want your fear. For your fear, like a current, rushes through your body. Your fear makes your heart pound, it renders your veins rich and full. Your fear hemorrhages deliciously within you.' That hypnotic line from Dracula by Steven Dietz, sets a terrifying tone for a new season of "killer shows" at the Farmington Players Barn. John Boufford of Northville Township directs the new adaptation of the classic horror tale that he refers to as a "PG-13" production. The play preserves the suspense and seduction found in Bram Stoker's famous novel. It opens October 11th on the Barn's brand new stage floor, and runs through November 2nd. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast below!

Premier Digital Publishing is proud to announce the publication of Rubber Soul by Rock 'N Roll legend Greg Kihn in print (ISBN 978-1-62467-094-7,$16.99) and eBook (ISBN 978-1-62467-093-0, $9.99). Greg Kihn continues to pioneer the rock thriller genre with Rubber Soul, an exhilarating ride through Beatlemania featuring The Beatles themselves. The idea for Rubber Soul originated from his interviews with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Pete Best, Yoko Ono, Patti Harrison, and Geoff Emerick. When asked where The Beatles found the rare American R&B 45's that constituted their early repertoire, Pete Best revealed that it was from Merchant Marines who carried the records back to Liverpool from America. From there, came the fictional Dust Bin Bob, a character who befriends The Beatles from their penniless early days and saves them from an assassination attempt in the Philippines during their world tour in 1966. Rubber Soul is a work of fiction with 100% historically accurate details. This fast paced plot, full of intrigue, also incorporates historically accurate facts as well as previously unpublished information about the Beatles' early years.
