Dracula
by Bram Stoker
in a new adaptation by Ross McGregor
produced by Arrows & Traps Theatre
“Listen to the children of the night. What sweet music they make.”
Immortal only as long as he is able to drink the blood of the living, Count Dracula has come to London. Setting his sights on Mina Murray, he embarks on a blood-fuelled path of seduction and devastation. As Mina begins to hear the music of the night, her fiancé Jonathan Harker and Professor Van Helsing must race to defeat Dracula, before it is too late.
This brand-new stage adaptation based on Bram Stoker’s monumental, genre-defining Gothic horror classic is brought to irresistible life as a spine-chilling masterpiece of fear.
Eight-time Off West End Award Nominated Arrows & Traps Theatre return to the Jack this Halloween after their sold-out run of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein last year, and their critically-acclaimed recent production of The White Rose.
Please note this production contains elements of blood, gore, horror and violence, loud noise, strobe lighting, drug use and scenes of a sexual nature. Suitable for 16+.
