NAVASOTA THEATRE ALLIANCE TO PRESENT LATEST PERFORMANCE
The Navasota Theatre Alliance continues its 40th anniversary season with their latest theatrical performance.
The play is entitled, “The Count Will Rise Again or Dracula in Dixie.” It is written by Dennis Snee and directed by John W. Baldwin.
The Dracula legend goes South in a spoof featuring the world's first Yankee vampire, Count Dracula of Pennsylvania.
The action takes place on the plantation of Doc Stewart, a proper Southern gentleman physician, who runs a kind of halfway house of "recovering politicians and other emotionally disturbed persons."
The trouble starts when Count Dracula moves into nearby Plantation and encounters plumbing problems. Invited to stay as a houseguest with Doc Stewart until they're cleared up, the Count begins some dirty work of his own.
Soon the Doc's niece, Miss Lucy, and her friend, Miss Mina, begin experiencing anemia, general poor health, and disturbing dreams featuring an ominous figure who "looks like Mick Jagger!"
The performances run April 10-April 26. Tickets are available on-line at www.NavasotaTheatre.org.
For more information, call 936-825-3195, or send an e-mail to NavasotaTheatreAlliance@gmail.com.
The performances are made possible through grant funds from the City of Navasota and the Arts Council.
