Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors at Allen Contemporary Theatre

Allen Contemporary Theatre is proud to present Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors, running October 3-19. Performances are Fri/Sat at 8 PM and Sundays at 3 PM. Tickets are available at www.AllenContemporaryTheatre.net/tickets.

The world’s most famous vampire gets a hilarious makeover in Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors. This Dracula is as ridiculous as he is ruthless, as the Count has his sights set on London. The unflappable Dr. Van Helsing leads the charge against the Count with a combination of oddball tactics & clever disguises. As Dracula spreads his charm (and his fangs) across the city, Helsing and his mismatched heroes must race to defeat the vampire and save England from eternal darkness.

Performed with just a small cast playing dozens of characters, the play is packed with wild physical comedy, clever wordplay, and outrageous quick changes. From Transylvania’s haunted castles to London’s drawing rooms, Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors is both a parody and a celebration of the beloved Gothic tale. This laugh-out-loud farce proves that even in the face of evil, comedy can be the sharpest stake of all.

Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors is directed by Byron Holder and features Benjamin McElroy, Walt Threlkeld, Isabella Wilson, Katie O'Brien, and Brett Lee in 13 roles.
