The Truth About Transylvania written by playwright Patricia Lynn’s opened last week A.R.T./New York. Check out new photos of the production below.
The critically acclaimed production runs until November 1 and resurrects the legend of Dracula in a bold new form, transforming the classic novel into a lean but lyrical memory play set in the twenty-first century. Jacob Titus directs.
After narrowly surviving his vacation to Transylvania, John Harker vows to speak out and prove to the world that Count Dracula is very real. But as John struggles to relive his strange story, his inquisitive wife Millie can't help questioning the validity of his claims. Can John prove to everyone—including the person he loves the most—that he is telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth...before the infamous monster strikes again?
The Truth About Transylvania runs until November 1, with performances on Wednesday, October 29 – Friday, October 31 at 7pm, and Saturday, November 1 at 3pm. Running time: 90 minutes.
The cast features David Israeli (Dracula), Patricia Lynn (Millie), Miles Purinton (Van Helsing), and Mark Weatherup Jr. (John).
The creative team includes Randall Benichak (sound), Austin Boyle (lighting), Al Foote III (fight choreography), Patrick T. Horn (mask/movement consultant), and Heather Olmstead (stage management). Produced by Patricia Lynn and Alejandra Venancio.
Tickets are $30 and are available at www.transylvaniatheplay.com. (Tickets purchased before October 22 are $15). Ticket sales for the Wednesday, October 29th performance will be donated to the New York Blood Center. The production is being staged at the Mezzanine Theatre at the A.R.T./New York Theatres, located at 502 West 53rd Street, New York, NY 10019.
