A definate must for the Gorey connoisseur,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dracula: A Toy Theatre : The Sets and Costumes of the Broadway Production of the Play (Paperback)
More fun than Betsy McCall cut-outs! This toy theatre recreates the stellar sets of Broadway's Dracula (Cort Theatre).EXPLORE: The delightfully gothic decor at Lucy's abode, and Carfax Abbey. IMAGINE: yourself drawn - no etched into the maudulent world of smoldering sensuality, stolen glances, and mysterious things that-go-bump-in the moon-drenched- night. HEAR: The tap-tap-tapping of long, bony fingers scratching on the window glass in Lucy's room, beckoning her closer, closer... FIND: The subliminal visually prosaic "Ode to Chiroptera" (i.e.bats) embedded in the renderings of the Abbey, the clouds, .... Stoker would be proud!!
