See it if You are a KH diehard fan: want to see a feminist take on Dracula.

Don't see it if You want to see a well written adaptation of Dracula.

Also I am a fan of KH and was looking forward to her Dracula and especially her as Renfield. She was great, but I felt that the play needed a couple more rewrites. It felt unresolved, unsure of what it was. Usually KH balances humor with drama better. I would have liked more humor especially with such an over the top story as Dracula.... Read more Read less

Also I have never thought a man pretending to be a woman in and of itself as being funny, but, being a fan of Santino, and Tony Y.'s music, I decided to go. Santino was good although his singing as Dorothy was not pleasant. Disappointed in Tony's songs, only a few funny lines, no memorable melodies. His score, and, the cast were fun.... Read more Read less
