The Mystery of Irma Vep - State Theatre Company of South Australia 2003

by Charles Ludlam

The Mystery of Irma Vep is a play in two acts by Charles Ludlam. A penny dreadful, Irma Vep is a satire of several theatrical and film genres, including Victorian melodrama, farce and the Alfred Hitchcock film Rebecca (1940). The play includes eight characters that are intended to be performed by two actors. The actors play roles of both sexes. In order to ensure cross-dressing, rights to perform the play include a stipulation that the actors must be of the same sex. The show requires a large number of sound cues, props, special effects, and lightning-quick costume changes. Some 35 costume changes take place in the course of the two-hour show.
