Dracula By John Godber and Jane Thornton: As a sudden and mysterious storm whips the coast of England, a young woman sleepwalks along the edge of a cliff. In the teeth of the gale, a ship crashes through the harbour entrance, abandoned except for an immense dog and fifty boxes of grave dust. The Transylvanian Count Dracula has arrived in England. Immortal only as long as he is able to drink the blood of the living, he pursues his victims with brutally devastating effect. From the remote wilderness of Yorkshire to a vast ruined castle near to London whose windows omit no light, the race to end Dracula's lustful power is underway, if only there is still time...
True to Stoker's original novel, Dracula is a fast-moving multi-layered masterpiece of fear adapted by Jane Thornton and John Godber. Rock the Boat Productions brings this exciting production to Liverpool's Innovative Performance Venue, The Capstone.
Thursday's performance has a special pre-show talk by Dr John Bennet, who will be speaking about the play and its context and where it fits in the Godber Cannon.
Friday's performance has a special post show talk with the cast and crew.
Directed by Andrew Cooper
