The novel is already told through the points of view of different characters, using their diary entries and newspaper clippings. I knew there had been one man versions of "Dracula" before, so how could mine be different? I decided to use the original text as Bram Stoker wrote it, and only the original text.<br />
<br />
Bram Stoker's notes for "Dracula" are at the Rosenbach Museum and Library in Philadelphia. I went there one day to go see them. I was looking for some insight into why Bram Stoker wrote the book in the first place, what he wanted to achieve with it. I asked the curator at the Rosenbach if there was any material like that in the notes, and she said no. I was excited anyway. The curator asked me why I wanted to view Stoker's notes, and I told her that I was writing a one man play of the novel that used only Stoker's text.<br />
<br />
"Oh, that's never been done before," the curator said. I knew I was on a good path.<br />
<br />
I was alone in a reading room with Bram Stoker's notes. I held them in my hands (covered in protective plastic of course). It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Bram Stoker planned out "Dracula" for seven years, something he never did with any of his other work. I could literally feel his excitement pouring out from the pages, he knew that he was creating something very special. Stoker was originally going to call Dracula Count Wampyr, and on the page below, you can see him come up with the name Dracula for the first time. He crosses out Wampyr and writes Dracula, then at the top of the pages he writes "Dracula, Dracula, Count Dracula." Like someone in love.<br />

<br />
The thing that I really took away from the experience of reading Stoker's notes is the amazing imagination the man had. How he created a story in his mind, planning it carefully, and then released it out into the world. The book was well-reviewed, but never became famous during Stoker's lifetime. He never lived to see the monster he created. It galvanized me to finish writing the play, and gave me a purpose in performing it. I wanted to honor Bram Stoker's creation, and do justice to his words, and maybe encourage people to go back to the source and read the book.<br />
<br />
Since June 2011 I have performed "Stoker's Dracula" at many venues around Philadelphia, in theater festivals, museums, and people's homes. It is a great honor to perform the play at Curio Theatre Company, where my love of solo performance began. And to do it tonight, on Halloween, in a dark theater . . . what could be better than that?<br />
<br />
Before every performance I talk to Bram Stoker, wherever he is now. I ask him to let me tell his story well, and honor his work. I thank him for the gift his work has given me, a solo piece that is my own, and that seems like it has enough blood in it to keep running for a long time.<br />
<br />
Happy Halloween!<br />

<br />
I have always been fascinated with Bram Stoker's "Dracula." I first picked up the novel when I was about eight years old. I got about halfway through the book then, up to the point when the stake is driven through Lucy's heart. It's a graphic, bloody, and disturbing scene, and it was all the terror I could stand at that age. I stopped reading. I still have my first copy of "Dracula," and on the back cover there is a blurb that scared me almost as much as the words inside:<br />
<br />
"The reader is warned that he who enters Castle Dracula may not escape its baleful spell, even when he closes this book."<br />
<br />
It was right. I've been caught in the spell of Stoker's masterpiece ever since.<br />
<br />
Eventually I worked up the courage to finish reading the book, and over the years I sought out every film version of "Dracula" that I could get my hands on. I became obsessed with it. I have a few that I love very much. The original silent "Nosferatu" feels like a documentary to me. It feels like it really is Dracula's castle, and Max Schreck embodies the Count more than any other actor ever has or will. I try to base my physicality for the character of Dracula on Schreck's performance, because he just stands still and scares you to death.<br />

<br />
Bela Lugosi's performance is equally iconic, and the thing he really created was Dracula's voice. When anyone decides to imitate Dracula, it's Lugosi's unique vocal inflections that come out. For most people, Lugosi simply is Count Dracula.<br />

<br />
Werner Herzog's 1979 remake "Nosferatu the Vampyre" has a terrifying atmosphere that starts with the opening credits: a slow pan along a cavern with hundreds of dried up mummies of men, women, and children, their mouths open in silent screams. I always imaged there was a room in Dracula's castle like that, and seeing it on screen was eerie beyond belief.<br />
<br />

<br />
I think Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 "Dracula" is the most faithful (for the first half anyway), restoring a lot of the novel's text and structure. I also have a soft spot for Gary Oldman's performance as the ancient Dracula. He gets closer to the complexity of the character than anyone else.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjtRIt_8VtTmRkeNAKQVutSy1Xy0s3CxvI16C7qYeuGcZkxlWMdrEfhgpUrFZa7bNTjQQOs6uXk5Oo6CUWj03QjugnDIe87ROpLkpZP0bndK2xWANx-yhMsODIPRv3TIRvrJJIsMCjPQY/s1600/draculagary.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="170" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjtRIt_8VtTmRkeNAKQVutSy1Xy0s3CxvI16C7qYeuGcZkxlWMdrEfhgpUrFZa7bNTjQQOs6uXk5Oo6CUWj03QjugnDIe87ROpLkpZP0bndK2xWANx-yhMsODIPRv3TIRvrJJIsMCjPQY/s320/draculagary.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
And if you love Dracula, how can you not find "Dracula: Dead and Loving It" hilarious? The cast includes Leslie Nielson, Peter MacNicol, Mel Brooks, Harvey Korman, and the movie is worth seeing for Anne Bancroft's gypsy woman cameo alone.<br />
<br />

<br />
But in all the movies and plays I devoured, I never found a Dracula that lived up to what I saw in my imagination when I read it. <br />
<br />
I started working with Curio in 2008, when I played K in "The Trial," directed by Jared Reed. The following season I was in Conor McPherson's "The Weir," which is one of the best scripts I've ever worked on. It was all about storytelling, especially telling ghost stories (I've also been a tour guide for the Ghost Tour of Philadelphia for six years). The next show after "The Weir" was Jared Reed's one man version of "A Christmas Carol."<br />
<br />
It was brutally cold the night I went and there weren't very many people in the audience. And it remains one of the best pieces of theatre I've ever seen. I was captivated by the idea of one person telling the audience a great story, allowing you to use your imagination to fill in the blanks while seeing the author's actual words skillfully interpreted. Jared's performance took a story I thought I knew and made me see it with new eyes, and see it much deeper and more honestly than I ever had before. It kind of changed my life in some ways. It made me discover a passion I didn't even know was there. <br />
<br />
As I made my way home from that performance, I kept thinking "I want to do that. That is exactly the kind of work I want to do."<br />
<br />
Around the time I started working for Curio I also began creating a Victorian theater program at the Ebenezer Maxwell Mansion in Germantown. It's an amazing house to do theatre in, beautifully restored and also a gem of a museum. We have a Dickens Christmas Party event every December, and I proposed doing my own one man version of "A Christmas Carol." My adaptation is different from Curio's, it is more of an abridged version for one thing. I can never forget Jared's performance, but I feel like I made it my own. It was received very well, and I'll be performing my adaptation for the third year in a row this December. I love telling that story so much.<br />
<br />
But it got me to thinking. I discovered that I loved being a solo performer, and I wanted to do another project.<br />
<br />
Then I remembered "Dracula."<br />
<br />
To be continued . . .<br />

As always it was a treat! The actors got all dressed up, we scouted the building for the perfect backdrop, and got a bunch of wonderful press photos.<br />
<br />
Rehearsing and performing a play about a nun and a priest in a church has its advantages. We had some lovely locations to work with around the Calvary building, although it was a bummer to everyone that the stain glass windows were dark because of the rainstorm going on outside! <br />
<br />
Take a look at these behind the scenes photos:<br />

It was a blast!<br />
<br />
Most of the Company Members who were in attendance were working various stations at the event, and in all the hubbub we forgot to put someone (anyone!) on photo detail. So all of the pictures I have are from the Pre-Gala setup.<br />
<br />
Just imagine that the tables are filled with smiling, well-dressed individuals, who love theatre and enjoy supporting the art.<br />

And then we'll have rehearsal and meetings and build days and then, finally, shows! <br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have always been told that you never know where life might take you. Today Artistic director Paul and I (your friendly neighborhood Stage Manager) had just such an experience. Paul got a call early in the day from John*, a Curio family friend who works in the Biz. He wanted to let us know that a local, big name movie** set he'd been working on was to be dismantled, and asked if we want any of the scrap.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now when I say scrap, I mean that everything from a set that the higher-up movie-people want is wrapped, packaged, boxed, and sent on its way to be used somewhere else, and everything else is scrap.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Everything else is scrap.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Desks. Pillars. Spare lumber. Ceilings. Walls. Floors.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Paul and I packed as much neat looking "scrap" as we could into the van, trying not to gawk too much in the process, and drove away into the early evening feeling like bandits.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pillars for <i>Equus</i>? A bigger desk for the Curio office? New seating for the unnamed New Basement Space?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Who knows. Anything could happen this season!</div>

A really big 'thank you' to Ryan for kicking our summer off right!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06172095987353874883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1651936317196775710.post-29776079948075717412012-06-01T16:37:00.000-04:002012-06-01T16:37:26.143-04:00DestructionYes, our season ended two weeks ago, and Summer Theatre Camp doesn't start until July - so you might think we'd be sipping margaritas by the pool, but you'd be wrong! Instead, we're building a NEW THEATRE! Also, we don't even have a pool (but if you have one you'd like to donate, it is 100% tax deductible).<br />
<br />
Today marks Day Two of our not-so-secret summer project. Located right underneath the theatre space where you're used to seeing Curio shows will be a brand new space.<br />
<br />
Complete with our own entrance:<br />

together.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>When we started rehearsing <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">Slaughterhouse-Five</i>, we started putting the play together almost immediately, and these past few weeks have gone by so quickly.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The main part of the scenic design consists of a raked platform, 6 sections of which can split apart and move in different configurations.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>The show moves constantly back and forth in time, from place to place, and this set allows us to make those transitions easily.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>I can’t wait to see what the lights, costumes, and sound add to the world of the play, and I’m dying for the platform and backdrop to be painted.<span

it’s extremely funny, and many moments that are deeply moving.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>When I read the play after reading the book, I was struck by how incredibly faithful Eric Simonson’s adaptation is to Vonnegut’s original work.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>I think fans of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">Slaughterhouse-Five</i> will be very happy with

I ran out of time to handcraft individual cookies, so the dough went straight into a pan and became bars.<br />
<br />
I made these Tuesday, and they lasted a little under a week. How do I know that? One, I was there. Two, the cast of <i>Eurydice </i>found the final remnants of the bars around Friday night and expressed their feelings of abandonment.<br />
<br />
Last week I baked again. Having the time, I made actual cookies instead of bars, and because they are (Superintendent) Len's favorite, and because he was super nice to me one rehearsal last week, I made oatmeal raisin. These did not make it through one rehearsal. That's four hours.<br />
<br />
How can one snack last so much longer than the other, in the face of starving artists? Our director, and fearless leader, Craig answered this for me. Actors are lazy. Cutting out one bar from a pan is too much effort to extend, even of it means you get to eat a cookie.<br />

This week, after days of pestering and copious amounts of bribery, I've made mini banana nut muffins. Let's see how long they make it.Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03988360331547332027noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1651936317196775710.post-13368989663473945182011-11-16T15:23:00.002-05:002011-11-22T15:28:52.283-05:00"What light through younder window breaks?"Our productions don't always have cameras (although we've had some fantastically creative promotional <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/CurioTheatre" target="_blank">videos</a> created by Brian Siano), but lights and action we have plenty of. And while typically the lights are pointed blindingly at the actors, we here at Curio thought it might be nice to give them a small break.<br />
<br />
Want to see what we're so excited about? Just walk past our entrance on Baltimore Avenue after sunset. If you're feeling lazy, or have had a tiring day, you can peruse the photos at the bottom of this post instead, but I highly recommend seeing this light for yourself. It may just look like some typeface-talented toddler graffiti-ed the sidewalk with glow in the dark chalk, but don't be fooled! Attached to the Calvary roof, through perilous and ungodly feats of engineering madness, is a huge, bazooka-shaped light (as we laymen like to call it) with a fancy, schmancy, glass gobo in it.<br />
<br />
Basically, it's like the bat-signal. Only with color. And we pointed it at the ground. And when it's on, instead of crime, there's theatre.<br />

Next week we open! I'd say more but honestly, do you want me to spoil everything?<br />
<br />
What did we learn this week?<br />
String tangles. Constantly.<br />
Placing children (and actors) in water causes water fights.<br />
Working over the ambient drip drip drip of water is more difficult than you'd think. Especially when you're standing underneath the spigot.<br />
Costume parades are the closest you can get to Halloween before, well, Halloween.<br />
Harry (Big Stone) makes some pretty tasty donuts (but only if you bug him to).<br />
<br />
And now for photos! Granted, they're not as good as the photos taken during our photo shoot on Saturday with Kyle Cassidy, photographer extraordinaire. We'll try to post those later. (If you want to see them now, check out the <a href="http://tinyurl.com/3t3xglf">Facebooks</a>)<br />

On the stage! Splashing people! Gallons and gallons of it!<div><br /></div><div>But enough about that, let me tell you a secret: the only reason any actor goes to any rehearsal is in the hopes that there will be snacks. For Eurydice rehearsals, we've somehow gotten into a rotation of snack brining, not unlike a children's soccer league. So some days our stage manager Beth will bring in home baked cookies and muffins and full blown cakes and stuff, some days CJ Keller will bring in three gummy bears for the cast and crew (for the record there are about 10 people at any given rehearsal). Then sometimes it becomes my day for snack bringing, so on those days there are no snacks. </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">That is, until today! During yesterday's rehearsal I was shamed by an anonymous stage manager (who may or may not have been already mentioned in this post) into dusting off the old oven and baking something for tonights rehearsal: </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTZoz9rDjZxMtnuF6XAjMW4S-4Y3-qZu5vSfVzaAZ-7k4wxJtAdh2KMK9zSdwyS_baMoDDB_R6xODrCXas6jD20Eox7TYx15JK3fPX6206RX4_HFXkCK2iBcQsPAtaa0Q-badAWYir9Rs/s400/Photo+on+2011-10-07+at+09.03.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5660736905352789442" /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Not the most photogenic donuts in the world, but having eaten four of them already, I can tell you they are decadently good. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">And now for the catch: if you want to know what's in em and how to make em, you'll have to come see Eurydice, opening next week.

But that doesn't mean you can't read on!<br />
<br />
This week we had a wonderful Designer Run for, well, the designers. What is this thing we call a Designer Run? It's all in the name. We do a full (but still rough) run through without stopping for our designers so that they can see the full product. Most of them haven't seen anything of the show up until this point in the rehearsal process. So, for instance, the lighting designer can see where the actors are, what the mood of a scene is, and then have an idea of what and how he needs to light the show. Pretty neat, huh? We also had a lovely visit from our composer. He had lots of great tunes for us to dance, bike, and Suzuki to.<br />
<br />
The lights are almost all up. The actors are off book. Next week is tech. We are, as they say, moving right along.<br />
<br />
What did we learn this week?<br />
<ul><li><a href="http://youtu.be/MO9nzpZIoFk">Glenn Miller</a> is all you could want in a fifty's musician, and more</li>
<li>String houses don't just take time, they take <i>a lot</i> of time</li>
<li>The Arden Shakespeare edition of King Lear makes a fantastic thump noise when thrown from a height of 10 feet</li>
<li>Orpheus writes a lot of letters... </li>

This week we had another lovely visit from Josh Browns for our third and final Suzuki workshop, and we started delving into the language of the Stones. We have, as foretold by the mystic prophesy of rehearsal schedule, moved and grooved our way through the Second Movement, and are now ready for the epic conclusion of this three part play.<br />
<br />
On the schedule for next week is the Third Movement. This may not seem as exciting as, say, a week of dancing and Suzuki, but believe you me, it is! The end of the play is something we haven't seen hide nor tail of since the read through. Who can remember how it ends!? <br />
<br />
What did we learn this week?<br />
<ul><li>Making a list of what we learned is super fun: I'm making it a weekend tradition!</li>
<li>Tricycles are not built for adults</li>
<li>String houses don't just take time, they also take patience, and a whole heck of a lot of imagination</li>
<li>Suitcases can be stylish, and fun to sit in! </li>

Granted, half of the week was filled with read-throughs and workshops, but that doesn't mean there was any less work being done. We've danced and played through the First Movement (<i>Eurydice</i> doesn't have acts, like other, more pedestrian plays) and are ready to forge ahead!<br />
<br />
On the schedule for next week is Day Three of Suzuki training (which means rocking it out to, and with, the Stones), slogging through the Second Movement, and straight on till morning. I mean straight on to the Third Movement.<br />
<br />
What did we learn this week? Let's make a list:<br />
<ul><li>The Jitterbug isn't hard. It's just slightly more complicated than your average macarena. Especially when you have lines.</li>
<li>Suzuki <i>is</i> hard. But it's a really good workout, it connects you to you core, and it becomes art when Paul Kuhn does it (I type with a metaphorical gun to my head).</li>
