Dracula, a comedy of terror

A New Vision of a Classic. Dracula reinvents the legendary vampire saga with a darker, more visceral, and modern approach, blending suspense, sensuality, horror… and a good dose of dark humor. Prepare for an immersive experience where love, obsession, and terror intertwine in ways you never imagined. This bold adaptation explores human fragility and the price of immortality, all wrapped in a visually stunning package. Directed by the extraordinary Hugo Bélanger, the production promises a cast that will make you laugh, gasp, and probably question your life choices. The actors? Well, they prefer to stay in the shadows, just like creatures of the night. Who will dare to take on these iconic roles? Stay tuned… because, like any good vampire, they won’t reveal themselves until after their midnight snack. A show with jaw-dropping visuals, an enchanting soundtrack, and a sense of humor so dark you might just need a flashlight. Dare to be bitten—it's all in good fun.
