Last night a friend and I decided to catch a play presented by the Blaine Community Theater. First time I’ve had the pleasure. The group performs right here, so why not? I’m glad I went! “Vampire Dreams” written by Suzy McKee Charnas and directed by Christopher Key and Linda Adler was enjoyable.
It was fascinating to watch how the story moved along between the four actors. I was swept up into the current day storyline of a Manhattan psychiatrist, her own wants and needs held at arm’s length, dealing with a patient, a professor, who wasn’t allowed to return to teaching until he was “cured” of his delusion of being a vampire.
Clever interaction took place between shrink and patient, bringing about a risky openness and candor in both characters.
Cast consisted of Karen Edland (Dr. Floria Landauer), Christopher Key (Prof. Edward Weyland), Phillip Wheeler (Kenny) and Kerry Walker (Lucille). The crew was comprised of Rick Collier, Marc Cutler, Laree Griffith, and Autumn Griffith.
A hearty congratulations and “Thank You” to cast and crew!
“Vampire Dreams” was performed at Blaine Middle School October 17, 18, 24 and 25, and will be performed again at The Firehouse Performing Arts Center in Fairhaven October 31, November 1 and 2. (360) 391-0582 for more details.
Want to get involved in the Blaine Community Theater group? I understand they’ll be meeting at the Blaine Library the evening of November 3rd. I think they said 6:30 p.m.
