Happy Birthday, Dandies!

The Foppish Dandies turned 1 year old on November 16! Nov 16, 2007 was the opening night for Bat Boy: The Musical. One year later, the Dandies are still alive (at the very least un-dead) and kicking ideas around into high gear.  Lots of interesting projects coming up this year and beyond.

Caligari “Highly Visual…. and Adventurous”

40th Street Stage production is highly visual – and adventurous

THE SPIRITS are everywhere, making us see things and do things we shouldn’t.”

Add dark, ominous music and very little lighting, and you get the idea.

Caligari a Need-To-See

An eerie violin and spectral violinist introduce an especially interesting, and perhaps important, piece of local theater.

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, adapted by Philip Odango from the classic 1919 film of the same name, is a mixed media phantasmagoria melding components as disparate as a freak show and serial killings with the nature of reality itself.

Collaborate. Cultivate. Experience.

Good evening and welcome to the new home of The Foppish Dandies & Co., an independent theatre company in Southeastern Virginia. Celebrating it’s one year anniversary with a critically-acclaimed stage adaptation of the German expressionist 1920 film ‘The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari’, the Dandies is managed by producing technical director Donna Dickerson and artistic director Philip Odango. The Dandies aspire to assimilate creatives who are inspired to collaborate and experiment on projects that focus on and serve the Big ‘A’ Art. We cultivate talented and visionary techs and actors who really want to become part of an experience bigger than themselves. A person who sees a Dandy production will galvanize their peers to become enthralled in that experience.
