DRACULA
By Steven Dietz From the novel by Bram Stoker
November 19 - 21, 2010
"I want your fear. For your fear, like a current, rushes through your body. Your fear makes your heart pound, it
renders your veins rich and full. Your fear hemorrhages deliciously within you." This new adaptation restores the
suspense and seduction of Bram Stoker's classic novel to the stage. As Count Dracula begins to exert his will upon the
residents of London, they try to piece together the clues of his appearances—in a valiant attempt to save themselves
from a hideous fate. Rich with both humor and horror, this play paints a wickedly theatrical picture of Stoker's
famous vampire. Dracula kicks off the 2010 - 2011 season on November 19 & 20 at
7:30 p.m. and on November 21 at 3:30 p.m. Directed by Rainee Angles.

THE LITTLE PRINCE
By Rick Cummings and John Scoullar From the book by Antoine de Saint Exupery
August 5 – 7, 2011
The Little Prince tells the story of a world-weary and disenchanted Aviator whose sputtering plane strands him in the
Sahara Desert and a mysterious, regal "little man" who appears and asks him to "Please, sir, draw me a sheep." During
their two weeks together in the desert, the Little Prince tells the Aviator about his adventures through the galaxy, how
he talks to everyone he meets. From each he gains a unique insight which he shares with the Aviator: "It is only with
the heart that one can see rightly." "What is essential is invisible to the eye." At length, both the "little man" and the
Aviator must go home each with a new understanding of how to laugh, cry, and love again. The Little Prince runs
August 5 & 6 at 7:30 p.m. and as a matinee on August 7 at 3:30 p.m. Directed by Rainee Angles.
