Photos: First look at Evolution Theatre Company’s DRACULA, A COMEDY OF TERRORS

Ever wondered what would happen if you took Bram Stoker's legendary vampire tale and put in into a blender with the comedic influences of Mel Brooks, Monty Python and The 39 Steps? That's just what happens in this lightning-fast, laugh-out-loud 90-minute gender-bending, quick-change magical 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 Jean Van Helsing. Doctor Jean Van Helsing and her motley company chase  the dangerous and sexy Count Dracula from the English countryside to Transylvania to "other frightening places." Their antics brim with enough tongue-in-cheek mayhem to fill your cup of giggles.
