DRACULA: A FEMINIST REVENGE FANTASY, REALLY
By Kate Hamill. Based on the novel by Bram Stoker. Directed by Jasmine B. Gunter.
Thursday, February 29, 2024 at 7:30PM

Ethel M. Barber Theater
on the Evanston Campus of NU at The Wirtz Center
30 Arts Circle Drive
Evanston, IL 60208
Located on the southeast part of the Evanston Campus, just off Sheridan Road and Campus Drive. The Barber Theatre is at the top of the hill facing the lake, right next to the Block Museum, in the Arts Circle.


In this thrilling new adaptation that bounces between horror and humor, playwright Kate Hamill confronts the sexism in Bram Stoker's original work. By upending the familiar tropes of damsels in distress and dashing villains, Hamill reimagines the vampire classic as a full-throated feminist battle cry driving a gleeful stake through the heart of toxic masculinity.
