Gothic horror tale with a fierce, funny, and feminist twistLa Crosse, WI -The University of Wisconsin La Crosse Department of Theatre and Dance proudly presents Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy, Really. by Kate Hamill, a razor-sharp reimagining of the novel by Bram Stoker. Performances will show October 10-11 & 16-18 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees on October 12 & 19 at 2:00 p.m. in the Toland Theatre, Lowe Center for the Arts on the UWL campus (333 N. 16th Street, La Crosse).
Bouncing between horror and humor, Kate Hamill’s adaptation of Bram Stoker’s seminal novel is a thrilling play that questions who the true monsters are. “When your survival is at stake…will you be able to distinguish the monster from the man? Both terrifying and riotous, Kate Hamill’s imaginative, gender-bending ‘feminist revenge fantasy’ is like no Dracula you’ve ever seen—exploring the nature of predators and reinventing the story as a smart, disquieting, darkly comic drama.” (Theatrical Rights Worldwide) Hamill’s signature style and postmodern wit upends this familiar tale of Victorian vampires—driving a stake through the heart of toxic masculinity. Fierce, feminist, and frightening, Dracula is a revenge fantasy worth sinking your teeth into!
