Open-Door Playhouse continues to present short plays in podcast form. The Playhouse is presenting a new play, Monsters Anonymous, starting October 23, 2024 online at http://opendoorplayhouse.org

            October is, of course, the month of Halloween, and Monsters Anonymous  is certainly appropriate for the season.

         Dracula wants to be a better monster. He feels guilty for the people he’s killed and he wants to make sure he doesn’t kill again. However, he realizes his urge to kill is an addiction. He can sustain himself on animal blood, but he’s addicted to human blood and the rush of drinking it after a kill. He decides to join Monsters Anonymous, MA, a group dedicated to monsters and their addictions, but he pretends he is addicted to alcohol. In the group he meets Gaywolf, who is addicted to bulking up, Frankenstein, who is addicted to plastic surgery, and Ghost Girl, who is addicted to love and stalking her ex-girlfriend. Will he find inspiration and companionship from the group? Or will he continue to cave to his addiction and kill again?

            Bernadette Armstrong directs Kevin Carr, Monique Gonsalves, Gina Elaine, and Larry Coleman.

            Melissa Marie Watson is the playwright.
