Modern classical theatre company TP&Co. presents this hit, madcap spoof of horror films, Victorian romance and classic melodrama, in which two actors play all eight roles. More…
When an Egyptologist's wife is attacked by a vampire, it leads to a mummy resurrection and a werewolf hunt. The sympathetic werewolf, the vampire, and an Egyptian princess brought back to life all join in the fun of 'The Mystery of Irma Vep.' TP&Co. revives this campy, creepy comedy satirizing several theatrical, literary and film genres.
"Tyler Nye and Dominic Sellers do a fine job portraying all the characters. They are both highly proficient and talented actors who never cease to be entertaining...If you are looking for a way out of your mundane, humdrum existence, a good first step would be seeing Charles Ludlam's campy comedy."
