DRACULA
“Ben Stevenson’s ‘Dracula’ is spectacle of an order ballet audiences seldom see today.” – New York Times
“Dracula is sinister and formidable as he flies across the stage and through the air.” – Deseret News
Mysterious and spooky, powerful and dramatic with flying vampires and pyrotechnics! The dark and brooding Dracula surrounded by his core of brides and hungering for more blood, this ballet sinks its teeth into intricate choreography as the dark tale unfolds, set to the ominous music of Franz Liszt. Come see why this ballet version of Dracula is becoming a Utah favorite!
Recommended ages 8 and up.
