College theater version of DS
« on: May 24, 2019, 01:33:30 AM »
Fans,

The author (and a star) of this send-up of DS, "The Complete series of Dark Shadows, ABRIDGED" posted a video of the production of the play here:

For those who may have interest. It is the complete play.

THANK YOU! I heard about this and sent information to one of my best friends in Louisville. He went to see it and was impressed with it. I hoped video would surface eventually.

We had a topic about this last year:

KWC Theatre to Present 'The Complete Works of Dark Shadows Abridged'

I've wondered about how it turned out because no reviews ever seemed to surface. But now thanks to Gothick we can judge for ourselves.  [ghost_smiley]

I watched the first ten minutes or so and it reminded me so much of plays we did when I was in high school.

It was not really my cup of tea, but it's nice that the fan who wrote and performed in it has made it available for people to enjoy.

MB, you'll be interested to know that the author/star got into the 1960s series as a result of watching the Burton/Depp film at a friend's house. The movie made her curious about the original show and she immediately became addicted. The play she wrote was the eventual result.
