Terry Pratchett’s
"Carpe Jugulum"

Adapted by Stephen Briggs
Directed and "mucked about with" for Unseen Theatre Company by Pamela Munt

Vampires are seizing the throat! Can witches seize the day?

The de Magpyrs are the sort of vampires that would have Count Dracula spinning in his grave. They are modern, forward-looking and no longer afraid of holy water, garlic, religious symbols or, indeed, of anything else.
They’re out of the casket, and want a bite of the future. Not only that, they’ve got sytle and fancy waistcoats.
Little do they know, that they should be afraid – very afraid – because the Lancre witches are on hand to save the Discworld and the battle is on. The witchers are about to “kick some bat”.

An hilarious battle of wills between vampires and witches – this “fast-moving, funny and ingenious” tale is a worthy follow up to the highly successful “Maskerade”.
It is Terry Pratchett’s twenty-third Discwold novel – but the first to star vampires

THE AUTHOR:
Terry Pratchett has been the UK's best selling author for many years and has won a multitude of awards for using his "Discword" creation to poke hilarious fun at all aspects of our own world.
His books have been translated into many languages across the world and have earned the distinction of being ranked the most shop lifted books in the United Kingdom
"Both his inventiveness and his moral shrewdness seem inexhaustible"
- A.S. Byatt, Daily Express

Philip Barry

Joy Sweeney

After getting a divorce from C.K. Dexter Haven, Tracy Lord prepares to marry again… however, in the days before her wedding, Haven and a reporter, posing as her brother’s friend, show up at her doorstep. From there, Tracy is forced to choose among her past love, her present love and her new love. Amidst the situation comedy, and fast-paced dialogue, Barry explores several contemporary social issues, such as society’s perception of class differences in America and attitudes towards adultery and divorce in the 1930’s.
