Vienna 1912 – shortly after the opening of the Kabarett Simpl, an incredible revelation occurs. Forget everything you know about Dracula - it was a lie. Transylvania?? Ridiculous! Garlic?? Childish!! The blood-sucking monster was staked and beheaded?? Where from!! The undead wanted to buy a house in London?? Pah!! Where does the Prince of Darkness really feel at home – what do you think? Exactly - in Vienna!

A 75-minute comedy play with 4 actors performing over 40 characters. This original version retells Bram Stoker’s Dracula in a chaotic, theatrical “truth-telling” mission, full of quick changes, stage mishaps, and slapstick humour. This show is produced by Teatro Británico, which has over 20 years of experience in professional theatre productions in Peru. The directing team is led by professionals with formal theatrical training in the United Kingdom. The cast features four professional bilingual Peruvian actors.

Forget everything you know about Dracula – it was a lie. Well, maybe not everything. But way too much!

It is the year 1912 and Professor Van Helsing has an urgent concern: the truth about Count Dracula must finally come to light! She is supported by a troupe of three highly motivated performers who slip into over 40 roles to present the true story as authentically as possible. They stumble together over props and stage parts, forget or invent their text, and inspire their audience with more or less ingenious (magic) tricks. All this, of course, in the service of enlightenment! Because the biggest lie about Dracula is that his haunting has long been put to an end ... as the saying goes: The unsaid live longer!
