Adapted by Hamilton Deane & John L. Balderston from Bram Stoker’s famous novel’. This is the classic 1927 adaptation that ran for 261 performances on Broadway and propelled Bela Lugosi to stardom.
Lucy Seward, whose father is the doctor in charge of an English sanitorium, has been attacked by some mysterious illness. Dr. Van Helsing, a specialist, believes that the girl is the victim of a vampire, a sort of ghost that goes about at night sucking blood from its victims. The vampire is at last found to be a certain Count Dracula, whose ghost is finally laid to rest in a striking and novel manner.
Venue Details
The Northern Academy of Performing Arts is a pioneering arts charity providing excellent, affordable training in Hull and the East Riding for all ages. Our vision is to change lives through performing arts activities in this region. From our home in the iconic 1904 Art School adjacent to Hull Paragon Station, we provide a wide range of classes to around 650 students each week delivered by a professional teaching staff in the fields of dance, acting and musical theatre. In addition, NAPA’s innovative educational outreach programme supplies training in primary schools across the region reaching over 2000 pupils, enriching their day to day education. We run a full-time level 3 Performing and Production Arts course in collaboration with Wilberforce College and UAL. One of our key targets is to give people as many opportunities to develop their skills and confidence through live performance as possible. We stage productions all year round in our own 125 seat NAPA theatre as well as larger scale shows at Hull Truck, Hull New Theatre and Hull City Hall. Pupils study with us for many different reasons, some just for fun, some to build confidence and some because it is their chosen career path. Each year young people progress from NAPA onto full-time professional training at vocational colleges across the country, and then onto working in the industry. NAPA is proud of its professional standards and caring ethos, believing and investing in the creativity and confidence of our students.
