Kip Williams’ production of Dracula was first staged at Sydney Theatre Company in 2024 starring Zahra Newman, and is the final instalment in Kip’s Gothic cine-theatre trilogy that also included The Picture of Dorian Gray and the Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

Williams reunites with Olivier Award-winning designer Marg Horwell and lighting designer Nick Schlieper for Dracula, which promises to be a riveting study of the monster within, and will combine live video, pre-recorded film and an extraordinary live performance from Cynthia Erivo for the piece.

Erivo plays all 23 characters in Bram Stoker’s iconic tale, from the naïve solicitor Jonathan Harker and his fiancée Mina Murray to confidante Lucy Westenra, her suitors, and the formidable vampire hunter Van Helsing, as well as the infamous Count Dracula.

Dracula marks Cynthia Erivo’s return to the West End stage following her Tony Award-winning performance as Celie in The Color Purple in New York and London.

Cynthia Erivo also briefly sings in the show, performing one song only near the end, composed by Clemence Williams. The soundtrack for Dracula features a mix of classical, contemporary and club music.

The production’s creative team also includes sound designer Jessica Dunn, video designer Craig Wilkinson, composer Clemence Williams, and dramaturg Zahra Newman, with further creatives to be announced.

The play is set in a ruined castle, high in the wilderness, where a mysterious presence is lurking. Is it man or beast? Angel or demon? For centuries, Count Dracula has held his remote corner of the world in a vice-grip of terror. But evil is on the move and the residents of London will soon fall under its bewitching, transformative spell.
