Category: Arts

This two-act world premiere delves into the man who came before the legend. Once a loyal servant of the church, he leaves his new bride to fight in its name. When false news of his death reaches home, her longing of reunification comes at the cost of her life. Returning home only to find his beloved gone, he renounces his faith. At this crossroad of ruin, Dracula is born. In search of newfound devotion, this world premiere blends gothic with a deeply human depiction of adoration, piety, and deception. Dracula will feature both the power and nuance of our full company alongside a novel score.
