Get a sneak peek at theatre dybbuk’s next project, in which they investigate Bram Stoker’s Dracula, weaving together their unique blend of historical investigation and heightened theatricality to create a new work from the core of the novel. The project, set to premiere in Los Angeles in September 2025, explores such questions as: How do long-held prejudicial beliefs show up in a popular novel from England written at the turn of the 20th century, and in what ways do those beliefs still operate today? To what extent can perceptions of antisemitism, racism, and xenophobia be deemed as accurate and true, and how much is in the eye of the beholder?
This event includes approximately 75 minutes of performed readings from the in-process work and will be followed by a discussion with the audience.
