The (Not So Real) Housewives of Transylvania, a World Premiere comedy, will come to Hollywood Fringe. The production is written and directed by Scott Sanders. Presented by 5 Acorns Productions. Performances run June 4-26.
Kristina has it all, charisma, power, great looks, wonderful girlfriends, a handsome and powerful husband-Miklos-and, immortality. Yes, she's a vampire. In present-day Bucharest, Kristina is having a mid-century crisis and decides that she wants to stop being a vampire, get a divorce from her handsome "coven-leader" husband, stop feeding on humans, and......... become HUMAN... again!
Kristina is bored of the constant need for human feeding and a limited circle of nocturnal friends. She wants out. Now! Or maybe in a week. Kristina wants to be mortal again and be a normal woman. We soon discover that our four fiendish vampires and their groupie, are as dysfunctional as can be. Kristina wants to be human again-possibly impossible. Ali is tired of being second fiddle to Kristina and is always trying oddball ways to depose the Alpha Female Vampire. Mina is human but wants to be a vampire, but she wants to be turned at the right time by the right vampire. Miklos is seeing his Coven and his world collapse, and he sorely needs to find some new blood and "turn" some humans to build up his coven community. All bat guano is about to hit the fan when Kristina runs into an American duo-writer and producer-who want to film a reality show in Eastern Europe. Can an American reality television show save the helpless and hopeless vampires from destruction, or worse, mediocrity? A full moon is not the answer. Maybe becoming a star is what Kristina really needs! And maybe, just maybe this is the change Kristina needs as she introduces the American team (and us) to her world and The (Not So Real) Housewives of Transylvania.
