Dracula

dracula.jpg"The world is an uneasy mix of dark history and modern society, where the supernatural is pitted against modern science, and madness against supposed rationality.  Zen Zen Zo is a tight ensemble, and the story of Dracula is well-suited to the company's characteristically striking visual and physical style.  The nightmarish tensions of the Gothic horror classic are writ large by the performers' high-impact energy and the production's spectacular design." 

RAVE MAGAZINE, 2007.

A radical reinvention of Bram Stoker's classic Gothic horror story, Dracula explored issues of gender, sexuality, and desire.  Driven by the chorus of ten Bygone Women bound by 19th century conventions and corsets, and the three unleashed Brides of Dracula, this new adaptation drove inexorably towards its bloody end.  Staged as a part of the IN THE RAW Studio Season, this was the first production to take place at the Zen Zen Zo company's home - the glorious Old Museum Building in the heart of Brisbane.
