  3. DRACULA: an interactive melodrama


Dracula - in Roseville, Wed. Oct 8 at 7 p.m. $22 adults, $15 Youth.

A new interactive melodrama by T.S. Forsyth, based upon the story & characters of Bram Stoker. An on-script lively performance of this deliciously tongue-in-cheek brand new play!  WONDERFUL CAST of early-career and seasoned professional actors are touring this show regionally.

Count Dracula, a member of the wealthy ruling class, is sucking the lifeblood from the honorable hard-working citizens of local communities. Is Van Helsing’s obsession with stopping Count Dracula’s corruption enough, or will Harker’s love for Mina drive Harker into action to right the wrongs?

This comedy-thriller is an interactive melodrama not to be missed. It is a wonderful candidate for booking into retirement communities, colleges, grades 3-5, middle and high schools or as a fundraiser or evening entertainment for civic organizations.
