Good things are coming! First up is a new staged musical reading. The Solstice Ball tells the love story of Count Dracula and the gypsy, Mirela, long before other more well known events of his life. Set in Transylvania at Bran Castle in 1847, it is a tale of want and peril at a time when revolution looms to free the gypsy slaves. Dracula yearns for love while Mirela longs for freedom and she is drawn to the Count when fate brings them together. But she is a slave owned by Beau Blair, a possessive Texan selling Colt revolvers to the noblemen and the Count is desired by Carmilla, a vampire of Bran Castle. Nobles, servants, gypsies and vampires, all with a stake in what transpires, await fate as the fortune teller warns of danger lurking at the Solstice Ball. Thursday, December 11th 2014 7:30PM is the performance at the Royal George Theatre at 1641 N. Halsted (North/Clybourn Red Line). Purchase tickets from Ticketmaster.com. or call 312.988.9000
