The Company Theatre's Dracula Opens Friday

Bram Stoker's classic tale opens on stage bringing the spooky out in October

The award-winning Company Theatre's spooky stage classic production of Dracula opens this Friday, October 14, playing through October 30, at The Company Theatre Center for Performing Arts, 30 Accord Park Drive, Norwell. Dracula is dramatized by Hamilton Deane and John L. Balderston, from the novel by Bram Stoker, directed by Maryann Zschau.

Inspired by Bram Stoker’s novel, comes a wonderfully eerie horror classic Dracula. Set in an English manor house in the 1920s, the persuasive and sexy Count Dracula peruses his passion of sinking his teeth into the throats of beautiful women. Bats fly, wolves howl and spectators enjoy the fun, horror and magical effects. Director Maryann Zschau's concept of combining a brooding 1920's England set with moody, contemporary music brings the timeless tale modern day perspective.

Tickets for Dracula are available by calling the box office at 781-871-2787, by emailing boxoffice@companytheatre.com, or visiting www.companytheatre.com. The box office is open Monday to Friday from 11 am to 6 pm, and during all performances. Free parking is available on site, and the theatre is handicap accessible.
