6th Aug - 29th Aug

A hypnotic reimagining of Bram Stoker’s immortal masterpiece from award-winning Plexus Polaire, the ‘exquisite’ (New York Times) creators of Moby Dick (Barbican).

Lucy Westenra is centred in this haunting reinvention of the heart-pounding gothic horror about obsession, control and the demon inside. Reality fractures as Lucy drifts between dream and nightmare, victim and liberator. Life-sized puppets and human performers collide with original music and cinematic video in an intoxicating descent into desire, fear and female emancipation.

Dark, sensual and visually breathtaking, this wordless production blurs the line between beauty and horror, human and puppet, life and death.

Please note: due to the technical requirements of this performance, re-entry is not permitted (with the sole exception of patrons who make advance contact with Pleasance to advise that they will require this, so that they can be allocated appropriate seating to accommodate their needs).
