IN MY BLOOD
Presented by Encore Theater Company

Gray and Alex, two childhood friends, reunite for one last night of partying. They learn of an annual, secret soiree, at a hidden location called Sanctuary. There, they meet Unique and Sasha, two of the revelers. Over the course of the evening, the pairs fall in love. The two friends come to learn that this is the home of the world’s last surviving vampires, and are offered a chance to join them, and live forever. Ultimately, everyone must choose sides – for love, for life and for family. First featured on ETC’s Litehouse New Musicals Reading Series as THE CURE, ETC is pleased to present the first production of the newly revised show here in Dayton.
