Dracula - Special High School Performance

Awakened by the unimaginable horrors she's witnessed, Mina Harker demands your attention. You'd be wise to listen close.

The only survivor of the tragic events chronicled in the famous letters, Mina is here to recount her version of Dracula's journey from Transylvania to London. Alongside trusted allies, and in memory of her beloved friend Lucy, they scramble to piece together the truth of his monstrous desires. But is their performance merely a warning – or does it have the power to conjure the dead?

In this major adaptation of Bram Stoker's horror classic, Morgan Lloyd Malcolm uncovers the female voices at the heart of the tale. It was premiered at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre in September 2025, directed by Emma Baggott.
