BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA

 

 

When we decided to produce Dracula as our fall show this season, I began sifting through the many versions available. There were so many variations on plot, character and theme among them that I realized I didn’t even know the original story. So, I read Bram Stoker’s Dracula and fell in love with his writing. I have done my best to preserve the integrity of his work while adapting it to a two-hour stage play. If it intrigues you, I hope you will be inspired to pick up a copy of the original and read it for yourself.  If you have read it, I hope you will enjoy this adaptation as much I enjoyed bringing it to you.
