The Boards, Sunday

[bluhblahbluh.livejournal.com]

The lights were on at The Boards, and the doors were open, but instead of a dapper vampire at the door, visitors would be met by a set of ropes and poorly written (mostly gauged) signs that guided them through the front of the house, past the box office (manned by a zombie missing both ears, so speak up), and into the auditorium.

On stage today was a rather, uh, interesting piece that the zombie actors had been secretly working on for a while now: a Shakespearean interpretation of Beckett's variation (with a smattering of Chekov's half-finished revision) of Sophocles' response to a Euripides' play...

Yeah. Drac had forbidden them to even bring it up in his presence.

But Drac was off-island, back home throwing an extravaganza to end all extravaganzas (until next year, of course) for Mavis' 17th birthday, so...


[Open!]

Antony the zombie has been practicing for the role of 'Box Office Teller #4' for months! Today he finally gets the chance to show off his talents!!

He was so excited, he left his ears in his corner of the basement. Good luck Antony!

The Play

[The House would like to express it's regrets that it is unable to present a suitable narative summary for what is being performed on the stage. The only blessing is that the ZAU (Zombie Actor Union) has forbidden all-zombie musicals when there is no naturally occuring running water on the property since the Atlantis showing of MacBeth.]

Front of House / Mingle / Avoid the show like the plague it is

There is the ocassional zombie wandering by, muttering lines or rushing off to grab a random item as a prop. Please try to make sure you don't get grabbed yourself; the House is not covered for that sort of thing.

There is, miraculously, some warmed cider (http://allrecipes.com/recipe/hot-apple-cider/) available for patrons. Don't ask, just be grateful that's a cinnamon stick and not a fingerbone.

I was planning to have Drac be out and about this weekend and then realized it was Mavis' birthday which means he HAS to be off island. So... while the Drac's away, the zombies will have a play!
