Yep, that's right, Vamp Fans! We're back! And this season's a big one! After eight years of blowing up the NYC theatre scene with our special brand of geek theatre, this season we're taking our genre-bending pop-culture irreverence and using it to tackle a true-life story with our Spring 2011 show, "The Inexplicable Redemption of Agent G". Using autobiographical indie comics like Harvey Pekar's "American Splendor", Alison Bechdel's "Fun Home", Art Spiegelman's "Maus" as a starting point of inspiration with a heavy dose of mischevious fun from books like "Scott Pilgrim" and Gene Yang's ABC mixed in, we're out to bend some theatrical genres this time, not just cinematic ones. But make no mistake, this is not going to be the typical talking-heads historical dramatizations one usually finds onstage. This is Vampire Cowboys afterall, so expect all the innovative action, bad boy clowning, and clever dialogue you can always expect from the undead wranglers of the theatre.But before we get to Agent G, we start the season off by bringing back our extremely popular show/party, THE SATURDAY NIGHT SALOON, for a fourth season (begins September 18th!). As always, the show's free, the all-you-can-drink beer (or until we run out) is $5, and for this year we'll be rocking it out every third Saturday of the month from September thru January. Who do we have this year? Here's the lineup!!!
