OfTheJackel presents Countess Dracula

November 7 @ 19:00 - 20:00
£5 – £20

“Welcome to my house! Enter freely and of your own free will!”

From the forgotten depths something truly awful is coming. Lurking in the shadows is your worst nightmare. A parasite, a monster, a woman.

This is no ordinary adaptation.

Joanna Holden is getting on. The roles are drying up and so is her skin. After too long in the shadows she’s coming to claim what is hers. One of literatures greatest monsters as you’ve never seen it before.

Longtime collaborators Joanna Holden and OftheJackel are fusing their significant experience in physical comedy and clown (Cirque De Soleil, Clowns Without Borders…) with Joanna’s lived experience of the menopause and society’s treatment of ageing women. From this unholy marriage springs something truly terrifying. A raucous retelling of Bram Stokers famous tale full of blood, rage and humour.

Recommended Price: £10

Age Guidance: 16+

Show Warnings: Strobe lighting, flashing lights, theatrical smoke/haze, sudden and loud noises, sound of a gunshot, strong language, sexual content, violence

 

What are ‘Pay What You Can’ tickets?

We believe that that arts should be accessible for all. For this reason some of our shows and events this year will be ‘Pay What You Can’, meaning that you decide how much you can or want to pay. This expands access to the arts for those who may not have been able to participate otherwise, or gives others the chance to support those who cannot by paying a bit extra.

You will see multiple prices available for each show or event. You can select whichever price you can afford or would like to pay – thank you.
