“Listen to the children of the night. What music they make!”
Bram Stoker's Dracula has been adapted countless times: there are more than 200 film versions, and hundreds of adaptations for stage, opera, ballet and television, not to mention a remarkable 18 musicals! The Count himself is the second most represented character in popular culture, after Sherlock Holmes.
 
So why a new adaptation? Quite simply because we have never yet seen one which does justice to this remarkable book. This version is as true to Stoker’s original novel as we can make it, and we tell the story using the magical alchemy of theatre and live performance. The play features original music, physical theatre and puppetry. We take audiences on a breakneck journey from Transylvania to Whitby, from London to Bulgaria and everywhere in between.
 

Shortlisted for the Hamilton Deane Award by the Dracula Society.
