NEWS: Dracula, A Comedy of Terrors to Make UK Premiere At Menier Chocolate Factory

It has been announced that Gordon Greenberg and Steve Rosen’s Dracula, A Comedy of Terrors will make its UK premiere at the London venue from March.

In the treacherous mountains of Transylvania, Jonathan Harker, a meek English estate agent, takes a harrowing journey to meet a new and mysterious client, who happens to be the most terrifying(ly narcissistic) monster the world has ever known: Count Dracula! When the Count sets his sights on Harker’s fiancé, the brilliant young earth scientist Lucy Westfeldt, he meets his match for the first time – as well as a slew of other colorful characters including vampire hunter Jean Van Helsing, insect connoisseur Renfield and behavioral psychiatrist Wallace Westfeldt, whose British country estate doubles as a free-range mental asylum.

The show is being directed by Gordon Greenberg, who returns to the Menier Chocolate Factory following his previous productions of The Baker’s Wife and Barnum.

While casting for the production has yet to be announced, the creative team includes: Set Design by Tijana Bjelajac; Costume Design by Tristan Raines; Lighting Design by  Ben Cracknell and Sound Design by Yvonne Gilbert.
