Why watch Dracula?
- Olivier-winner Morgan Lloyd Malcolm (Emilia) rips open Stoker’s novel and lets the women tell their side of the story, darker, fiercer, and bloodier than ever.
- Catch Mina Harker (last seen as Lily-Rose Depp in Nosferatu) as she’s up to no good, conjuring the dead. If you missed your daily dose of Count Orlok, Dracula promises to take you through the ruins of Transylvania
- Under Emma Baggott’s razor-sharp direction, the Lyric Hammersmith transforms into a twisted, immersive nightmare.
- The Lyric Hammersmith turns 130! Celebrate this milestone with this limited-run show: just don’t be surprised if something sinister is lurking in the wings.
Bram Stoker’s Dracula has been resurrected, reimagined, and reinvented countless times: on stage, screen, and even in pop culture - from Bela Lugosi’s hypnotic count to Francis Ford Coppola’s decadent romance. In this bold adaptation at the Lyric Hammersmith, playwright Morgan Lloyd Malcolm (Emilia) brings the female voices that have too often been drowned out by the Count’s sinister shadow. Through this feminist reimagining, Malcolm amplifies the voices of the women in Stoker’s novel, giving them agency, urgency, and a terrifyingly real presence. With a mix of theatrical sorcery, bone-dry wit, and gothic grandeur, this version of Bram Stoker’s Dracula bites back.
Storyline
Mina Harker thought she knew her husband. That was before she started reading his journal. Before the nightmares started creeping into daylight. Before the letters arrived: cryptic, desperate, drenched in blood. As Mina unravels the truth about Count Dracula’s journey to England, the question isn’t just whether she can stop him. It’s whether she’s already too late
