Before acclaimed playwright and filmmaker Neil LaBute became the
creator and showrunner of Syfy's new hit series Van Helsing, he had
already adapted Bram Stoker's Dracula for the stage—with a fierce
female Van Helsing as the vampire hunter.
In this masterful adaptation,
Neil LaBute brings a rich theatricality and his powerful and
provocative way with language and story to the world of Count Dracula,
Van Helsing, Jonathan Harker, and his beloved Mina—this time, with a
mind of her own—infusing the classic gothic tale of terror, obsession,
and pathos with a modern edge. Chilling yet stylish in its atmosphere,
dark yet deeply human in its emotional impact, Neil LaBute's Dracula: A
Thriller in Two Acts is a tribute to both Neil LaBute's dramatic
vision and the timelessness of Stoker's novel.
