Directed by Jez Bond, the cast for Dracapella will be led by Ako Mitchell (Disney's The Lion King) as Dracula. He’s joined by Oliver Award-winning actors Stephen Ashfield (The Book of Mormon) as Harker, and Lorna Want (Beautiful, The Carole King Musical) as Mina. Taking the role of Lucy is Keala Settle, the Outer Critics’ Circle Award, Drama Desk Award, and the Tony Award-nominated actor best known for her role as Lettie Litz in The Greatest Showman. The cast is completed by Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner Ciarán Dowd and TV actor and composer Philip Pope and world champion beatboxer, Alex Hackett, aka ABH.

Bram Stoker's gothic classic will provide audiences with the infamous story of Count Dracula like they have never seen - or heard - it before! Follow Harker as he heads to Transylvania to sell a crumbling castle to a mysterious client, he doesn’t expect to wind up in a love triangle – or is that a square? – involving his wife, her best friend, and one very melodramatic vampire. Dracapella features a score of close-harmony acapella renditions of your favourite jukebox hits, including Queen's "Somebody To Love", with mind-blowing beatbox accompaniment.

Dracapella will run alongside Gawain and the Green Knight in Park90.

Dracapella plays at Park Theatre from 3 December to 17 January 2026.
