RedTwist Opens DRACULA, 10/1

This October, come face-to-face with evil. London, 1893: insanity is spreading like a red infection over the East End. Human ashes spill from an abandoned ship. Wild-eyed streetwalkers recite Shakespeare sonnets to feed their starving children, and mad killers send bloody notes to newspapers promising a flood of innocent victims. Through the dense fog in the dark streets of a dying city, stalks a force of monstrous evil, as a bloodied band of outsiders sacrifice all to save their country from an unspeakable fate. Redtwist Theatre presents DRACULA: A TRAGEDY, a new adaptation of Bram Stoker's classic horror novel that asks if justice can live in the same world as terror, and what happens to a country when its nightmares come to life. You are invited to enter Dracula's madhouse: you will see the teeth; you will smell the decay; you will feel the fear.

Cast: Ariana Dziedzic (Mina Harker); Sean Ogren (Jonathan Harker); Shannon Riley (Lucy Westenra); Chris Amos (Quincy Morris); Evan Voboril (Mr. Renfield); Bob Pries (Count Dracula); Kathrynne Wolf (Martha Kent); Natalie Burtney (Samantha "The Rat Girl"); Dustin Whitehead (Chaplain Koffa); Scott Butler (The Sailor); Stacey Weckstein (Jenny Fitch)
