Marie Wallace visits Dark Shadows Forums

Hi Everyone,

I'm Marie Wallace, and as many of you know, I played "Eve", the most evil woman who ever lived, "Crazy Jenny Collins", and" Megan Todd" of the Leviathan period in the original Dark Shadows. Hence, I I've picked the user name of Eve-Jenny-Megan. My friend Nancy Kersey told me about this chat board idea, and I thought it would be interesting to be in touch with DS fans.

I see many of you at the DS Festivals that we hold every year (I wonder how many of you have come to the Festivals one or more times?)  They're always great fun, so I hope you've gotten to at least one of them. If you'd like to read about past Festivals, go to my Web site, www.mariewallace.com and you'll find lots of photos and stories about them.

I'm not exactly sure how a chat board runs so I'll just send this off, and go from there. Happy to be here.

With Best Wishes,
Marie Wallace

And we're thrilled to have you here.  Welcome!  You did fantastic with your first post. 

Welcome, Ms. Wallace!   Now, I'm afraid I'm going to have to go away and collect myself.  This may take some time.

How wonderful to have you here Ms. Wallace!  I was a volunteer at the 2004 Tarrytown festival and attended the gathering for volunteers that Saturday evening.  I really enjoyed listening to your stories about the theatre and your days on Dark Shadows.  I hope you enjoy the board as much as I have over the years.

Hey there! So glad you dropped by! This is very exciting for us!

I've often wondered if any of the DS alums have browsed through the board, perhaps under a "Guest" profile or something, just to see what we fans are talking about.

I remember when I first joined here, I was quite intimidated by the number of posts some people had--2500? 3500? Wow! But you'd be surprised just how quickly time passes when your reading messages in this forum, and how quickly the posts pile up.

We here at DSF like to discuss the finer points of the show we love: bloopers, plotlines, plot inconsistances, wardrobe. And we tend to speculate with leaps and bounds about things sometimes. But it's all in good fun.

I'd suggest heading over to the Caption This board and reading some of the material. Some of the quotes and/or captions that are made up for screen captures are quite funny.

Hope to see more of you soon!

I just wanted to say welcome. I have read your book and enjoyed it. I hope that you have lots of fun here. Never been to a fest. I would be nice to have one come to the Pacific Northwest, how about  Portland. We got our name from Portland Mass, that then became Portland Maine.  The people that name Portland actually flipped a coin.

Your work is great, always enjoyed what you did. 

Again I hope that you have lots of Fun.

A very warm welcome, Ms. Wallace!! It's so wonderful to have you stop by. I hope you will continue to post whenever you have time! 

Welcome Marie! How exciting to have one of the DS stars on the board! I haven't read your book yet but hope to someday soon. I haven't been to a fest and also hope to do that, and meet you and the other stars especially John Karlen, David Selby and Lara Parker. It would be great if you told us some of the behind the scenes stuff that occurred during the airing of the show, what you can remember of those days.

Again, welcome and I'm glad you're here.

Warmest welcome to our beloved Marie!  That's so nice of you to stop by.

We wish you all very best with your current projects.  You know you are a fan favorite!

cheers, Steve
who will never quite forget the day Professor Stokes announced that Eve was the reincarnation of "the most eee-vil woman who ever lived"!

What an unexpected pleasure!  I very much enjoyed your performances in the show.  Welcome to the Forums!

I'm so glad that you have joined us, Ms Wallace.  I have been to every Fest since Los Angeles in 2000, and have read and enjoyed your autobiography. I've never introduced myself to you, but admired you from afar. Welcome.

Nancy

I haven't quite collected myself yet.   

wow what an unexpected treat!

welcome marie.we've met several times at the fests.

i really enjoyed all three of the characters you played.it's great to have you on board!

Welcome, Marie!  This is so exciting!  I had the incredibly great pleasure of meeting you at the 2004 Brooklyn DS fest - you actually waved my friends and me over to you to come and "visit!"  I will never forget that!  You are such a wonderful and gracious lady!
