Dracula

For my birthday, Matt took me to see Dracula. First, we had dinner at Burgerville, which is near the Shoebox Theater.

It was another stunning performance by the Northwest Classical Theater Company. I wasn't sure about seeing them perform a non-Shakespeare play, and one that seems so easy to be overdone. But it was fabulous. We were on edge from the moment we walked into the theater.

This very dark photo shows the tomb on one side of the stage, with an angel gravestone above it. The other side of the stage had a bed. In the middle was a raised platform. In this tiny space, they managed to scare us out of our wits.

Well done NWCTC!

Mwah ha ha! What a fun October birthday outing. I was once in a less than fun production of Dracula (sadly facebook has evidence of it).
