The leaves begin to blow across the sidewalk, and Louisvillians begin to hang Halloween decorations, even if some people think it's a tad too early to begin the celebration. However, no one believes that it's really Halloween until they're sitting in a darkened theater, delighting at the annual darkness of Dracula, now playing through October 31st at Actors Theatre.

Originally adapted from Bram Stoker's novel of the same name, by John L. Balderston and Hamilton Deane, this unique version has been adapted and directed by William McNulty, and it is filled with OMG moments and an arsenal of special effects that leaves the audience with plenty to talk about once the lights come back on. The cast includes Santino Craven, Grant Goodman, Kurt Uy, Silvia Daily Bond, Neill Robertson, Rin Allen, Crystian Wiltshire and many more talented performers.

Cravin is mesmerizing as he leaps and rages across the stage, truly placing the audience under his spell. Goodman is a Van Helsing that we have all been waiting for, as he shows his vulnerability, even as he stands toe-to-toe with the beast himself. 

Grab your tickets early, because, throughout October, you will find that many performances will sell out! Be prepared for a decadently dark night, as you welcome in the season the best way Louisville knows how - with Dracula at Actors Theatre.
