Description
Set to the spellbinding music of Franz Liszt, the tale unfolds in the Count’s castle in Romania, where ghostly lighting draws the audience into the chilling castle crypt. The atmosphere breathes with the spirit of evil as Dracula seals his latest marriage with a bite.
Festivities at the picturesque village don’t escape the cloud cast by the count on the hunt. Trapping another victim in his vast bat-shaped cloak, he whisks her away in a frenzied coach that careens toward the castle gate. But this time, the count mixes with the wrong maiden.
He’s hypnotic. He’s confident. He’s calculating. With sets by designer Thomas Boyd, gothic costumes by New York designer Judanna Lynn and lighting by Tim Hunter, Texas Ballet Theater takes us deep into what The New York Times calls “a Dracula beyond Bram Stoker’s darkest dreams!”
Call toll-free 1-877-828-9200 for season tickets.
