THE MYSTERY OF IRMA VEP Extends Off-Broadway
The Mystery of Irma Vep starts on a dark, stormy night, when Lady Enid arrives at the eerie estate of her new husband and strange things begin to happen as she investigates the mystery of Irma Vep, whose portrait looms dramatically over the fireplace. With all of the characters portrayed by just two actors - this farcical spoof of gothic melodrama rips on classic films in the horror and psychological thriller genre, from Wuthering Heights to Rebecca and The Mummy's Curse. TP&co unwraps a revival of Charles Ludlam's classic satire of Victorian melodrama, Gothic horror stories and Hitchcock suspense; in which werewolves, vampires and mummies terrorize the inhabitants of an English manse.
The Mystery of Irma Vep was performed this past November at The Players Theatre to thrilled audiences and is returning Off-Broadway by popular demand for a limited time. Starring Dominic Sellers and Tyler Nye, just two actors swap wigs, accents, and costumes to embody every single player. TheaterMania says "Sellers and Nye are over-the-top ridiculous" as they transform between eight Victorian fops, adventurers, and monsters in this thrilling two-hander.
The Mystery of Irma Vep runs exclusively at The Players Theatre (115 Macdougal Street between West 3rd and Minetta Lane), with performances at 7:00PM everyFriday from January 8 through January 29, 2015.
