ACT 3 SC. 1

Question 1

MINA’S VOICE. [Upstage Center] Where could he be?

Answer 1

I don’t understand how I could have fallen asleep.

Question 2

JONATHAN. He was here. Dracula.

Answer 2

You must return to your room at once, Mr. Harker.

Question 3

MINA. Sit down. You look so weak. [MINA and JONATHAN sit on sofa. MISS ANYA moves right.]

Answer 3

I shall never forgive myself.

Question 4

JONATHAN. I tried to resist his power. I tried. I couldn’t.

[VAN HELSING and DR QUINCY enter Upstage Center]

Answer 4

It’s good you’re here.

Question 5

VAN HELSING. How is this possible, Miss Anya?

Answer 5

I don’t understand it. I heard a murmuring sound, like deep water. I became drowsy. I must have fallen asleep. When I awoke, my patient was gone. I thought he may have gone to see Mrs. Harker.

Question 6

MINA. Yes, yes– but how?

Answer 6

A vampire can assume many forms. Cat, bat, even a moth. If he’s threatened, he can vanish like fog.

Question 7

JONATHAN. What does that matter now?

Answer 7

Professor Van Helsing, what will you do if the creatures are in the coffins?

Question 8

VAN HELSING. In such a case, we will drive stakes through their cold hearts. Mr. Holmwood will remain here, Miss Anya. Tell him where we have gone. He knows what he must do. [he moves to the chest and takes out a pistol]

Answer 8

Bullets are useless against vampires.
