In this comic tale of death and dentures, the Romanian recession has hit Dragula, yesterday's greatest star, particularly hard. As her manservant struggles to protect her, can she reinvent her own future or will she need the help of a young, flirtatious stranger? Part spoof, part homage, part mash-up, The Bloody Fabulous Curse of Dragula features outrageous behavior set against the decay of lost fame and fortune.

Spence and Marty return to Spence's apartment for a night of sex, but they end up exposing more about each other than simply their bodies in Man Boobs, the darkly comic one-act play by J. Julian Christopher about love, body image, and acceptance. David Zak directs actors Michael Hampton and Rick Heintz in the Chicago premiere of the play which opens Pride Film and Plays' 2012 season.

It was fun, funny, and well acted. The crowd was great; the venue cozy, comfortable. Not a bad seat in the whole place. Go see it!

A little slow in spots. Some great one liners though. Needs a bit of redirection.

If you know who Norma Desmond is, you will laugh your butt off at this show! Funny, witty - all six in our group LOVED it. Do yourself a favor and watch Sunset Blvd before you go. It will give you a better sense of appreciation for the talented cast! Enjoy...

Quotes & Highlights

  • "Ed Jones as Dragula and Michael Miller as Max deliver deliciously over-the-top performances. (Playwright) Duane Scott Cerny's vulgar wit is... razor sharp." --Chicago Reader
  • "Michael Miller's performance is the highlight of the night... Ed Jones radiates the joy of Dragula... Encompasses the absolute best aspect of drag performance: Be who you are, and love what you do. Luckily for us, this cheerful cast does just that." --Chicago Theater Blog

Description

The Creators of 2009's Cult Hit Mrs. Hyde and the Case of the Gaslight Buggerings unearth an outrageous new parody.

The Romanian recession has consumed a great star of yesteryear…perhaps “the greatest star of all.” Can Dragula re-invent her own future or can it be re-written by the flirtations of a handsome young stranger? Can her loyal Manservant protect her from both the outside world and the grifters from within? And is being the “undead” really just the ultimate downer?

Part spoof, part homage, part mash-up… with some garlic just to give it bite.

Starring Ed Jones & Michael Miller With David Besky, Dan Hickey, Craig Conover & Lori Lee Written by Duane Scott Cerny. Directed by Mark Contorn.
