Son Of Legendary Movie Actor Bela Lugosi Raves About New Vampire Musical BLOOD ROCK
Bela Lugosi, Jr., son of legendary movie "Dracula" actor Bela Lugosi, attended the second night presentation of the new vampire rock musical "Blood Rock: The Musical" which has been greeted by cheering audiences at The Odyssey Theater in West Los Angeles. Mr. Lugosi was joined by members of his family at the show.
"My father would have loved this play," Mr. Lugosi said afterwards. "This show has drama, action, comedy, dance, romance, and best of all, lots of vampires! His first love was always the live theater stage, and I'm sure he would have greatly enjoyed 'Blood Rock' as much as my family and I have tonight!"
Described as "West Side Story...With Vampires," "Blood Rock: The Musical" made its world debut on Thursday, September 20th at The Odyssey Theater in West Los Angeles. The new musical, which runs thru September 30, tells the story of two rival vampire gangs that have been living secretly in the city of Philadelphia for hundreds of years.

Says producer Mandell, "Our new show is akin to 'West Side Story, but with Vampires, while also paying homage to 'Grease' and 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show.' This show is highly entertaining and a great deal of fun - it's just jam packed with humor and irresistible songs. Since we opened, 'Blood Rock' has been enthralling audiences of all ages."
