Hilarious, heartfelt, and surprisingly philosophically complex! Who knew a story about vampires would feel so human? ... full review

A desperate, Soul searching vampire navigates and ponders the life sucking numbness he’s feeling in every space, from an Applebees to a therapists office to heaven and ultimately hell, Stan aka Ethel Stan the vampire discovers that all the orgies in castles, power and beautiful Brad Pitt shiny vampire faces in the world etc can’t replace living in the now and appreciating his family. ... full review

The title to Derek Heeren's solo show is just flat-out bloody creative. "I Suck - A Vampire Comedy," is equal parts brilliant, charming and funny AF, but one thing's for sure, it does not suck. Like several other shows in the Fringe that take place in the therapist's seat, "I Suck" leaves no blood-soaked gravestone unturned as the mild-mannered, dare I say "beige" Heeren explores his darker, historically hilarious Vampiric world (and underworld) only to find peace at last. And yes, Derek, I do often wish I looked like Brad Pitt and had that skin and those glowing eyes, but that's another play. Don't miss this one, folks!... full review

This was so fun! Seeing Derek seamlessly transform between his characters throughout the show was like magic. The writing was so funny and engaging, I wouldn't miss this one! ... full review

Derek performed a very impactful and funny hour as Stan the vampire. Both moving and comical, it exceeded my expectations and ended up being an hour that was poignant and very funny. ... full review
