October 5th  through November 4th  2006

Thursdays thru Saturdays 8 PM
 

This production deals with mature family subjects that are appropriate for teens and adults.

Carolyn and her sister Honey share a secret fear that their Uncle Todd is a vampire. Although Carolyn is desperate to tell someone, Honey pretends that nothing is wrong. Everyone knows that the only way to get rid of a vampire is to drag it into the light…but in doing so, even more horrible secrets are often revealed.

From Artistic Director John Lant:

"I'm excited that this talented author is associated with Write Act Repertory as I wanted the season to start with an impact production. This is an important issue that sometimes gets lost as we individually focus on problems going on in the world instead of dealing with those problems going on under our own roof. Even though we deal with these issues beautifully in the writing, these are necessary evils that we must illuminate and seek solutions so that the youth of our children can be protected. Saving the innocence of our children is of utmost importance, lest they grow-up too fast and can not remember how to discern between right and wrong."
