I am the last of my kind. Let them pursue me to the ends of the earth: I shall be waiting…
Following the success of David’s first show, Great Expectations, Dracula was born. Now, ten years on, it’s time for the Count to rise once more…
Beware. He is unearthed, and he is coming. Keep your windows locked and garlanded with garlic!
Written and performed in our inimitable and irreverent style, this revised adaptation of Stoker’s famous gothic horror brings you a better and batter one-man performance of Dracula: the Vampyr!
There are bats… and more bats. Garlic and gore galore. Vicious Vampirellas and a psychiatrist who smokes a pipe!
Be warned: this monstrous, unnatural and utterly batty tale of the undead will thrill and beguile you!
It’s Dark! It’s Disturbing! It’s Daft!
Stoker’s gothic novel has been perfectly pared down and Mynne’s performance is exquisite: a masterclass in the teling of tales, it needs to be seen. Ciaran Clarke: Arts End of Nowhere
Wildly eccentric, totally bonkers and saucily scary, David Mynne’s magnificent one-man performance is flawless. Sheila Vanloo, Radio St Austell Bay
