The monsters look just like us.
In Kate Hamill’s wickedly clever new adaptation of Dracula, the playwright sinks her teeth into the sexism of Bram Stoker’s original, flipping it into a savage feminist revenge fantasy. With a badass, stake-wielding female Van Helsing and a delightfully deranged Mrs. Renfield lurking in the shadows, this version isn't just here to slay vampires—it's here to slay the patriarchy, too.
CONTENT WARNING: This production contains depictions of suicide and violence that may be distressing to some audience members.
