TOMS RIVER, N.J. — The Ocean County College Repertory Theatre Company will perform Dracula from October 17-19 and 24-26 in the Black Box Theater at the Grunin Center for the Arts, located on the main campus of Ocean County College in Toms River. Tickets are $24 adults, $22 seniors.
This thrilling new adaptation restores the suspense and seduction of Bram Stoker’s classic novel to the stage. As Count Dracula begins to exert his will upon the residents of London, they try to piece together the clues of his appearances in a valiant attempt to save themselves from a hideous fate. Filled with tension and drama, this play paints a wickedly theatrical picture of Stoker’s famous vampire.
Written by Steven Dietz. Directed by Paul Chalakani.
