Directed by Peter James Cook, Charles Ludlam's 'The Mystery of Irma Vep' opened to a packed house Friday at, West Hartford's own, Playhouse on Park. Following the Opening Night performance, the cast and crew gathered at Rizzuto's Wood-Fired Kitchen and Bar to celebrate and unwind.
The Meeting* hosted by Justin Sayre, called "a riotously funny and campy variety show" by Next Magazine, and 'a rollicking, wry affair complete with funny political commentary on current events' by Gay City News, will present their newest edition on Thursday, January 19 at 9:30 PM. The Meeting* - the monthly gathering of the I.O.S. (International Order of Sodomites) - is a gay romp through politics (sexual and otherwise), social news, music, comedy skits, and other important life-changing information.
The Mystery of Irma Vep by Charles Ludlam is one of the most produced comedies in US history. Named one of 1984's best plays by Time Magazine and the New York Times, it is a tribute to gothic horror films liberally stealing from well known film classics like The Mummy's Curse and Hitchcock's Rebecca. Literary detectives will also recognize dialog lifted from Ibsen, Shakespeare, and Poe.
