What happens when revenge becomes the rule? n a fractured America of the distant future, high tech, and deeply divided—power and vengeance collide in a brutal struggle for dominance. Set in Rome, Kansas, this electrifying reimagining of Shakespeare’s bloodiest tragedy exposes the cost of an “eye for an eye” in a world spiraling toward chaos. How far will we go for control? What will we sacrifice for revenge?

DRACULA: A Comedy of Terrors at Beavercreek Community Theatre Runs Oct. 23-Nov. 1

DRACULA: A Comedy of Terrors
Beavercreek Community Theatre
Oct. 23-Nov. 1
[Beavercreek]

Directed by Chris Harmon

Cast: Brandon Shockney as Harker/Cavendish/Worthington/Havemercy, Becky Howard as Dr. Westfeldt/Renfield/Captain, Cydnie Hampton as Lucy/Kitty/Driver, Jeff Murphy as Mina/Van Helsing & Everett Green as Dracula

What would happen if you took Bram Stoker’s legendary vampire tale and injected it with the high-octane slapstick and frantic energy of Mel Brooks and Monty Python? In this lightning-fast reimagining, the actors tackle dozens of roles to tell the story of the world’s most famous vampire with clever wordplay and quick-change antics. It’s a genderbending, bloodcurdlingly hilarious romp that proves the Count isn’t the only thing with bite.

Directed by Stephen Skiles

The ultimate cult musical experience, The Rocky Horror Show is a wild, hilarious ride packed with rock’n’roll, sci-fi thrills, outrageous characters, and audience-fueled fun. When wholesome sweethearts Brad and Janet seek shelter from a storm in the eerie castle of Dr. Frank-N-Furter, they are swept into a world of unforgettable music, over-the-top antics, and deliciously campy chaos. Fresh from its acclaimed 50th-anniversary Broadway revival, which earned nine Tony Award nominations, The Rocky Horror Show remains the most outrageous party in town; and a perfect celebration on Halloween night! Rocky Horror contains sexual language and situations, and some adult language. Fog and flashing lights are utilized in this production.
