CARPE JUGULUM A Stage Adaptation of Terry Pratchett's Beloved Discworld Novel
When modern vampires descend upon the mountain kingdom of Lancre, they bring with them a terrifying new approach to the undead lifestyle—one that doesn't involve any of that tedious business with garlic, holy water, or religious symbols. These aren't your grandmother's vampires; they've moved with the times, complete with self-help mantras and a disturbing lack of traditional weaknesses.
Standing between these sophisticated bloodsuckers and the innocent people of Lancre are Granny Weatherwax and her fellow witches, armed with nothing but iron will, ancient magic, and a profound irritation at having their Saturday evening disrupted. But when Granny herself falls under the vampires' influence, it's up to the unlikely duo of young witch Agnes Nitt and the mysterious Mightily Oats to save the day.
Packed with Pratchett's signature wit, unexpected wisdom, and delightfully twisted takes on classic horror tropes, this stage adaptation brings the beloved Discworld to vivid life. Expect spectacular magic, laugh-out-loud comedy, genuine heart, and perhaps the most unconventional vampire story you've ever encountered.
Sometimes the best way to seize the day is to grab it by the throat—metaphorically speaking, of course.
Book your tickets now—before someone else sinks their teeth into them.
