Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors Reviews

DC Theater Arts- Highly Recommended

"...Steve Rosen and Gordon Greenberg’s Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors is a 90-minute parody of Bram Stoker’s Dracula that premiered off-Broadway last year, and its big-time roots are clear in its overall excellent script. Given its relatively short runtime, the show’s reliance on a cast of five’s exhaustive work playing multiple characters each (the show’s licensing page notes its inspiration from The 39 Steps), and its premise of being a parody show of a well-known property, could all bode a mediocre affair. But under Danilo Stapula’s direction at the Workhouse Arts Center, the show is an utter joy and one of the best I’ve seen recently."

MD Theatre Guide- Recommended

"...Ultimately, “Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors” is not meant to be taken seriously. It’s a reminder that theater doesn’t always need to aspire to high art. Sometimes, it’s enough to embrace the absurd. It delivers laughs and spectacle as a horror comedy at its most lighthearted—a playful retelling of the world’s most famous vampire."
