Ma Acting Presents 'dracula'

About this event

Dracula Darkness is rising. In this thrilling adaptation of Bram Stoker's legendary gothic novel, acclaimed Scottish playwright Liz Lochhead breathes new life into one of literature's most iconic monsters. Blending horror, humour and psychological suspense, Dracula is a fast paced theatrical experience that explores obsession, desire, power and the battle between good and evil. As a mysterious Count arrives from Transylvania, an unsettling darkness begins to spread through Victorian England. Strange encounters, terrifying visions and unexplained deaths force a small group of unlikely heroes into a desperate race against time before evil claims its next victim. Liz Lochhead's adaptation strips the story back to its theatrical heart, creating a gripping ensemble piece filled with rich characters, haunting imagery and moments of genuine terror. Remaining faithful to the spirit of Bram Stoker's original novel while embracing the immediacy of live performance, this version is both chilling and surprisingly witty. Expect an atmospheric evening of gothic horror where shadows conceal secrets, nothing is quite as it seems, and some legends refuse to stay buried. Directed by James Baker.
