THE VAMPIRE LESTAT: A NEW WAVE ROCK PARODY

ABOUT THE SHOW

Forget the moody dark corners of 18th-century New Orleans. After getting swamp-dumped, poisoned, and slashed by his brooding roommate Louis and their feral porcelain-puppet daughter Claudia, Lestat returns for the ultimate payback: a high-camp, high-energy rock opera where he airs out centuries of toxic domestic grievances.

Think The Rocky Horror Picture Show meets Hedwig and the Angry Inch meets The Vampire Diaries—loaded with 1980s synth-pop parody anthems, interactive audience gags, and total camp chaos.

SEEKING: LESTAT DE LIONCOURT (LEAD)

Gender / Age: Male or Male-Identifying, Ages 18–40.

Vocal Range: High Baritone / Tenor with strong rock/pop belt and stamina.

Role Description: The ultimate undead diva rock god. High-energy, narcissistic, melodramatic, and dangerously charming. Must possess sharp comedic timing, dynamic physical movement, and an ability to command an interactive room with absolute confidence.

One-Liners From the Script (To match the tone):

Do you know how hard it is to get swamp algae out of a velvet tailcoat?

I refuse to let a little thing like decapitation ruin my blowout.

Hello Ladies , Gentlemen and Power Bottoms please expose your necks for my nightly feeding!
