Dracula

Venue

Noël Coward Theatre

Three-time Oscar nominee and TONY, Emmy and Grammy winner Cynthia Erivo is Dracula.

The acclaimed star of Wicked, Harriet, Genius: Aretha, and The Colour Purple transforms into all 23 roles in Tony nominee Kip Williams’ intoxicating, blood-pumping reimagining of the immortal gothic horror.

Deep in the desolate wilderness stands a crumbling castle; a mysterious presence lurking within. For centuries, Count Dracula has waited in hiding. Now, this phantom is coming out of the shadows. As the Count sets his sights on a fresh target, a new kind of terror begins – seductive, unstoppable and dangerously addictive.

Visionary adaptor and director Kip Williams reunites with the genre-defying creative team behind the Olivier Award-winning production of The Picture Of Dorian Gray to take his groundbreaking style to new, heart-pounding heights.

Experience the paragon of horror stories unlike ever before in this unmissable theatre.
