Show Information
Dragula reworks the classic vampire story in “a masterly kitsch cavalcade” of 80s music and high-energy performance (QX Magazine).
Dubbed “The Frocky Horror Show”, the show uses over 40 top-ten hits from the 80s, including 20 number ones, to tell the passionate love story of an undead vampire, desperate to find her paramour. But there’s a twist! For Dragula is a man in drag!
As the forces of the night take their stranglehold, the Power of Love leads to a final showdown between good and evil.
