“There are darknesses in life and there are lights, and you are one of the lights, the light of all lights.” — Bram Stoker

Enter a world of shadows, seduction, and supernatural dread.

This October, the doors of The Birmingham Black Box open wide to reveal Dracula — a chilling and seductive new stage adaptation of Bram Stoker’s immortal novel.

Directed and adapted by the acclaimed Fiona Winning, this production reimagines the gothic horror classic with haunting intimacy and theatrical precision.

Performed in our beautiful Grade II listed industrial space, follow Jonathan Harker on a fateful journey to visit the Count.

Watch Lucy fall under a mysterious illness no doctor can explain...
Hear the whispers of Renfield behind asylum walls...
And witness the slow, deliberate rise of the Count himself — a figure both terrifying and tragically human.

With candlelit minimalism and immersive staging, Dracula blurs the line between audience and actor, sanity and madness, light and dark. This is not a campy Halloween retelling — it is a bold and faithful homage to the novel’s psychological terror, sexual tension, and eerie atmosphere.

🎟 Limited Seating – Advance booking highly recommended

Perfect for fans of gothic literature, suspenseful theatre, and those who love the macabre. Come be devoured by the tale that gave birth to the modern vampire myth.

“I think strange things which I dare not confess to my own soul.”
You may think the same — by the time the lights go out.

A tale of passion, horror, and survival, this gothic masterpiece will leave you sleeping with the lights on afterward.
