Reviews of Dracula, Wimberly Players, September 26 - October 19


From one of two reviews posted on the Wimberly Players' website:

"Another outstanding performance was created by Chris Higgins, who could have stepped right out of the pages of an 1885 novel. Not only was he convincing as Harker, the love interest of Mina, the star heroine’s best friend, but he has acquired “the look” of an aristocratic gentleman, who would have been very comfortable in that period of history. The chemistry between him and co-star, Katie Combs Meldrum, was electric and so real, at times I felt like I was an eavesdropper on their private conversations."

"Rebecca Ferguson, as Lucy, the female lead in Dracula, was not only beautiful, and graceful, but the perfect victim. I found myself hoping that she would not succumb to the wiles of the evil vampire, Dracula, as I thought this might lead to her being carried off stage prematurely in a pine box. Just the opposite happens, and the plot thickens. She is a delightful young actress and so much fun to watch."
