Dracula: Mina’s Reckoning

Dracula: Mina’s Reckoning

★★★★☆ Angry

You can’t keep a good vampire down for long, and the story of Dracula keeps coming back to the stage, with its depictions of transgressive behaviour making it a constant candidate for reinvention.

You Bury Me at the Lyceum is an utterly convincing piece of theatre – visually, emotionally and politically forceful, performed with wit, skill and humanity.

Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre

★★★★☆ Pure theatre:
Resolutely theatrical and visually arresting, the version of Jane Eyre at the Festival Theatre retains the flavour of that well-loved book while succeeding admirably on its own terms.
