ABOUT THE PLAY
Seamlessly moving through humour and horror, Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy boldly reimagines Bram Stoker’s classic tale, Dracula.
Turning the table on the original tale’s unquestioned male dominance, Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy still features vampires and yet finds new monsters just beneath the skin. The gothic tropes of villains who wear evil on their sleeve and damsels in distress are replaced by all-too-human monsters and ferocious women who stab at the heart of the patriarchy itself.
Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy exposes the absurdity of gender stereotyping and confronts the sexism in Bram Stoker's original work, turning it into a feminist revenge fantasy.
“God should have made girls lethal when he made monsters of men” — Elisabeth Hewer
