Collection of thrillers ready for theater

    Pocket Sandwich Theatre’s offerings can satisfy a smorgasbord of tastes through May.

   The collection of thrillers begins with The Curse of the Mummy by Rodney Dobbs. The current theatrical production runs through May 18.

   Returning from the dead after thousands of years in an Egyptian tomb comes the mummified monster, Abul Ra, seeking vengeance.

   In life, he had ungodly designs on Queen Nefrashut and was punished with a tongue extraction and a bad wrap.

   This is another of the Pocket’s infamous popcorn-tossing comedies, spoofing many mummy movies.

   Dennis Millegan directs the show, and the running time is approximately two hours.

   Thursday-Saturday the show begins at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 7 p.m.

   Thursday performance cost is $6; Friday, $10; Saturday, $14, and Sunday, $8.
