Little Ones Theatre: Dracula

From acclaimed company, LITTLE ONES THEATRE (Stephen Nicolazzo, Katie Sfetkidis and Eugyeene Teh) comes a new theatrical event – gothic and erotic with a comic bent. This DRACULA will delve deep into the cinematic history of horror – from Bela Legosi to Gary Oldman, Buster Keaton to Catherine Deneuve, and a soupçon of Nosferatu - and bring it to the stage in all its bawdy desire, and gory glory.
 
With excessive eye-liner.  And popcorn machines.
 
LITTLE ONES THEATRE much lauded creative team - director Stephen Nicolazzo and designers Eugyeene Teh, Tessa Leigh Wolffenbuttel Pitt and Katie Sfetkidis – will again craft the Company's signature aesthetic of camp, kitsch and heightened visual style, joined by an exciting cast of frequent collaborators including Alexandra Aldrich, Zoe Boesen, Catherine Davies, Brigid Gallacher, Amanda McGregor and Janine Watson.
 
Renowned for its high quality and risqué independent theatre, the Company's production of Dangerous Liaisons sold out in Melbourne at the MTC's 2014 NEON Festival and broke box office records at the 2015 Darwin Festival, and previous award-winning productions including Psycho Beach Party, The House of Yes and Salome were loved by audiences and critics alike.
 
In 2015, Stephen Nicolazzo directed Meme Girls, a work created by himself, Ash Flanders and Marion Potts for Malthouse Theatre, and toured Ash Flanders' award winning Special Victim to the Adelaide Cabaret Festival.
 
Stephen Nicolazzo said: 'In our return to Theatre Works, LITTLE ONES THEATRE's world premiere of DRACULA will recreate the silent film experiences of the early 20th century, live on stage with a queer bent.
 
'We promise coffins, sequins and plenty of blood in our homage to a terrifying, seductive, lascivious and romantic monster."
 
This is DRACULA like you have never seen it before.
