Event Description

Blackeyed Theatre – In association with Harrogate Theatre and South Hill Park Arts Centre presents Dracula

By Bram Stoker
Adapted for the Stage by Nick Lane

Director – Nick Lane
Composer – Tristan Parkes

“I can give you your forbidden, secret desire – the soft bitter touch of my kiss, the surrender, the chance to live and love for ever”

The time is 1897. Mankind is on the cusp of vast technological change, scientific mastery, and media innovation. Poised between traditional beliefs, the threat of the unknown, and the shock of the new world, an altogether darker fear is emerging. As a new shadow looms large over England, a small group of young men and women, led by Professor Van Helsing, are plunged into an epic struggle for survival.

Stretching from London, through provincial England, to the mountainous wastes of Transylvania, Bram Stoker’s timeless gothic thriller embodies the struggle to break taboos, resist temptation, and stop the unknown outside from becoming the enemy within.

Adapted by Nick Lane, this brilliant, theatrical treatment of Bram Stoker’s adventure blends Victorian Gothic with the Contemporary, showcasing Blackeyed Theatre’s trademark ensemble performance style and featuring a haunting soundscape, powerful performances, and innovative design for an exhilarating theatrical experience.

Suitable for age 12 upwards
Running time: 2 hours 20 minutes approx (including interval)
