The blood-curdling stage adaptation of Bram Stoker’s classic Dracula, adapted by Steven Dietz, will close the UW-La Crosse Theatre Arts Department’s performance season.
The blood-curdling stage adaptation of Bram Stoker’s classic Dracula, adapted by Steven Dietz, will close the UW-La Crosse Theatre Arts Department’s performance season.
Dracula takes the stage at 7:30 p.m. Friday-Saturday April 29-30 and Thursday-Saturday May 5-7, and at 2 p.m. Sundays, May 1 and 8. Performances are in Toland Theatre in the UW-L Center for the Arts, 16th and Vine Streets.
UW-L’s version of the classic returns to the original dark suspense of the infamously vile villain of the night. Enter Mina Murray, the innocent yet passionate protagonist of the play, occupying late 19th Century London with her fiery best friend, Lucy, on the hunt for love. Mina is betrothed to Jonathon Harker who, at the onset of the tale, finds himself on an ill-fated business trip abroad in the Carpathian Mountains of Transylvania. It is not until Harker’s letters mysteriously cease, and Lucy’s behavior takes an abrupt turn for the bizarre that the audience begins to sense the undertones of a vast, debilitating depravity. Joined by Lucy’s psychologist suitor Dr. Seward and the God-fearing professor Abraham Van Helsing, the cast of characters is forced to wade through the increasingly frightening occurrences and discover the root of its cause before time runs out. The performance will include awe-inspiring theatrical effects.
