Dracula's arrival in the West End this year follows a successful debut by the Sydney Theatre Company in 2024. It is the final and most ambitious production by Williams, whose work has been successful on both Broadway and in London. Other work includes the six-time Tony Award-nominated and two-time Olivier Award-winning production of The Picture of Dorian Gray, which starred Sarah Snook, and the award-winning Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

This bold retelling reconstructs the narrative around a psychological battle between fear and desire. This will be executed by combining live video, prerecorded film, and live performance.

The production reunites Williams with his award-winning creative team, including Olivier Award-winning designer Marg Horwell, lighting designer Nick Schlieper, composer Clemence Williams, and joined by sound designer Jessica Dunn, video designer Craig Wilkinson, and dramaturg Zahra Newman.

Dracula will play at the Noel Coward Theatre until 30 May 2026.
