New comedy show DRACULA, A COMEDY OF TERRORS is coming to the Menier Chocolate Factory for a limited run this spring!
DRACULA, A COMEDY OF TERRORS gives Bram Stoker’s horror classic a comic makeover in this lightning-fast gender-bending reimagining that features a Gen Z pansexual Count Dracula in the midst of an existential crisis.
Starring James Daly (reprising the role of Dracula), Safeena Ladha as Lucy Westfeldt and others, Dianne Pilkington as Dr Westfeldt and others, Charlie Stemp as Jonathan Harker and others and Sebastien Torkia as Mina Westfeldt and Van Helsing.
With a cast of five switching costumes and roles at the drop of a hat, this 90-minute freewheeling send-up plays with sexuality and gender norms in the spirit of comedy legends Charles Ludlam, Monty Python and Mel Brooks – and celebrates goth, camp, and the magic of live theatre itself.
