About the Show

A quick-change comedy romp through gothic horror, romance, and classic Hollywood. Two actors play all the roles in this wickedly funny send-up of Victorian melodramas, werewolf movies, and mummy tales. With lightning-fast costume changes and razor-sharp wit, this show became a Company Theatre signature piece.
