“This is the very essence of theatre… Don’t miss it.” – The Bethlehem Press (PA)

Sent to Castle Dracula to deliver deeds to the infamous Count, Jonathan Harker has no idea what he’s getting himself into in this tour-de-force thrill ride, starring Duane Boutté (Sex and the City, Alabama Shakespeare, Lincoln Center)  and Directed by Christian Conn (Asolo Rep, Guthrie Theatre).

Once he arrives, Jonathan finds himself being held captive by the eerie and cryptic Count, discovering horrific sights behind some of the castle’s closed doors. Only after he escapes is his worst fear confirmed: Count Dracula is an undead creature of the night. With the help of Van Helsing and other friends, Jonathan sets off on a mission to find and destroy the Count before he becomes more powerful than ever, risking his life to save the lives of those he loves.

This is a transfer of the sold-out production presented on Bannerman Island in September 2025, to a fantastic new performance space in Beacon, NY: Saint Rita’s Music Room at the KuBe Art Center (old Beacon High School), located at 85 Eliza Street, Beacon, NY

Dracula: The Journal of Jonathan Harker welcomes actor DUANE BOUTTÉ who portrays Jonathan Harker along with 9 other characters in a tour de force performance.
