Take a look at rehearsals for Cynthia Erivo‘s return to the West End!

The Emmy, Tony and Grammy winner will play all 23 characters in Bram Stoker’s Dracula, which Tony Award nominee Kip Williams directs

Williams previously helmed Sarah Snook‘s solo take on Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Graywhich enjoyed major success in the West End and on Broadway. He now brings his Sydney Theatre Company production of Dracula, which is the final part of a Gothic trilogy of shows he created in Australia, to London, once more fusing live video, pre-recorded capture and on-stage performance.

The production reunites Williams with many members of the award-winning creative team from Dorian Gray, including designer Marg Horwell, lighting designer Nick Schlieper and composer Clemence Williams. He is joined by sound designer Jessica Dunn, video designer Craig Wilkinson and dramaturg Zahra Newman.

Dracula will open at the Noël Coward Theatre on Wednesday 4 February 2026 and play until Saturday 30 May 2026.
