SYNOPSIS: Step into the shadows with this spine-tingling adaptation of Bram Stoker’s iconic Dracula. In a world where everyone harbors a deadly secret, tension and temptation lurk around every corner. As Dr Seward works to unlock the mystery of Renfield’s strange affliction, it pulls everyone into a web of mystery, desire, and danger. Created by Vanessa Severo (Frida...A Self Portrait) and Joanie Schultz, this daring, highly theatrical retelling infuses the legendary vampire tale with humor, humanity, and bone-chilling thrills. Experience a classic like never before — gripping, provocative, and pulsing with new life.
For this production, DRACULA will use a heightened American dialect. No need for a British or Transylvanian dialect.
[DRACULA] He/Him, Mid 30s-40s. BIPOC. A charismatic predator with an ageless, magnetic presence. Sophisticated, manipulative, and terrifying in his quiet control. A strong sense of style is key. Has the appeal of a rock star in the vein of Prince or David Bowie.
