Cynthia Erivo to return to the stage in West End production of Dracula

  • Academy Award nominee Cynthia Erivo is set to make her stage comeback in February 2026, starring in Kip Williams' adaptation of Dracula at London's Noël Coward Theatre.
  • This follows Dracula's 2024 premiere at Sydney Theatre Company, originally directed and adapted by Williams and co-produced by Michael Cassel Group, who seek to replicate their Dorian Gray success.
  • Erivo will perform over 23 roles, including Dracula, Van Helsing, and Jonathan Harker, embracing a challenging meta-theatrical adaptation focused on fear and desire.
  • Cassel described the need for a star-driven show, saying, "Cynthia Erivo was the only name in our head for Dracula," while Erivo called the role "a homecoming" and said, "This show will ask everything of me."
  • The production’s international West End debut with Erivo signals a major theatrical event expected to explore complex human themes and expand on the original Bram Stoker narrative.
