The production will run at the theatre from the 8th March until the 3rd May.
Rehearsal images have now been released for the UK premiere of Dracula, A Comedy of Terrors which begins performances this month.
The cast for the production includes: James Daly (reprising the role of Dracula), Safeena Ladha (Lucy Westfeldt), Dianne Pilkington (Dr Westfeldt), and WhatsOnStage Award winner Charlie Stemp (Jonathan Harker), with the newly revealed Sebastien Torkia as Mina Westfeldt and Van Helsing.
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. Meanwhile, the creative team also includes: Set Design by Tijana Bjelajac; Costume Design by Tristan Raines; Lighting Design by Ben Cracknell and Sound Design by Yvonne Gilbert.
