More information about Dracula
Kip Williams has been on a roll with his gothic “cine-theatre” genre, having fostered The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and The Picture of Dorian Gray. The Picture of Dorian Gray became a huge hit both in London and on Broadway, and this new staging of Dracula brings a familiar blend of live performance and on-screen art to Bram Stoker’s classic horror story.
This production of Dracula in London marks Cynthia Erivo’s return to the London stage, in a role with a big ask: to tackle 23 characters solo, including Dracula, Mina, Van Helsing, and Jonathan Harker. Behind her is a formidable creative team, including Marg Horwell on scenic and costume design, Nick Schlieper on lighting, Clemence Williams as the composer, Jessica Dunn on sound, and Craig Wilkinson on video. Erivo’s shape-shifting performance, alongside the technical feats of this production, makes this show a strong contender for audiences looking for something new and exciting to experience.
What to watch for
- Dracula is the most portrayed character in film, having appeared in over 300 films.
- The actor Christopher Lee has been cast as Dracula 11 times.
- Bram Stoker began writing Dracula in 1890, only two years after Jack the Ripper made headlines.
