A Gothic Classic Reborn

In a daring, one-actor reimagining of Bram Stoker’s legendary novel, Oscar-nominated and Tony-winning performer Cynthia Erivo takes on the monumental task of portraying all 23 characters in this radical adaptation of Dracula.

Directed and adapted by Kip Williams—the visionary behind The Picture of Dorian Gray—this bold production repositions the classic horror tale as an intimate psychological battle between desire and fear. Told through cutting-edge ‘cine-theatre’—a dynamic blend of live performance and cinematic storytelling—Erivo’s performance spans from the innocent Jonathan Harker and steadfast Mina Murray to the enigmatic Count Dracula and the formidable Van Helsing.

This is not merely a horror story. It is a haunting meditation on the monsters within, and a return to the stage that promises to be as thrilling as it is unforgettable
