Current Offerings

Grades 8th – 12th

Based on the book by Bram Stoker, this original one-act version of the gothic story is set in Victorian England and features many of the leading characters from the original novel, including the heroic Arthur, brave Jonathan Harker, wise Dr. Van Helsing, beautiful and tragic Lucy, and her witty friend Mina, along with the intelligent Dr. Seward and, of course, the disarmingly dangerous Dracula himself. With a host of other “evil” characters, this is a challenging and epic tale that is sure to tingle your spine!
