Dracula

This Halloween season, the Warner Theatre invites audiences to experience a chilling adaptation of Bram Stoker’s timeless vampire tale with a bold new twist. Dracula, presented by Stage @ the Warner, runs from October 25th through November 3rd in the Nancy Marine Studio Theatre.

Penned by playwright Jana Beagley, this reverse-gendered adaptation reimagines the legendary Transylvanian vampire as the bloodthirsty Countess Dracula. Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, Countess Dracula embarks on a ruthless conquest, stalking and draining the blood of handsome young Englishmen. It is up to an intrepid band of badass women to stop Dracula before all is lost!

The cast (in alphabetical order) features: Caroline Ahlman (Prof. Van Helsing), Iris Courchaine (Lady Ariana Holmwood), Gillian Holt (Countess Dracula), Lexi Hannan (The Child), Jordan Maya (Dracula’s Consort), Adriana Medina (Jane Harker), Robert Richnavsky (William Murray), Fior Rodriguez (Dr. Jacqueline Seward), Alex Ryan (Dracula’s Consort), Olivia Wadsworth (Renfield), Cameron Williams (Dracula’s Consort), and Dante Wood (Lucas Westenra).

Dracula is directed and production managed by Dick Terhune, stage managed by Emily Collins, with costume design by Renee Purdy, lighting design by Matt DeLong, set & projections design and scenic charge by Lana Peck, sound by Josh Rodin, and master carpentry by Alex Tuttle.

The Warner is proud to partner with several organizations in the region for the ultimate fall fun with the Dracula Blood Drive, Whiting Mills Halloween Spooktacular, and The Forsaken Lands Haunted Attraction.
