About the show
Step into the shadows and learn how to design fear itself.
In this atmospheric workshop, you’ll explore how Dracula uses space, light, and texture to create spine-tingling tension on stage. Use Gothic elements to create setting and mood: produce a gloomy, decaying Carpathian castle, an atmosphere of
dread, and supernatural menace.
You’ll sketch and build your own miniature set inspired by castles: think flickering lanterns, warped staircases, and secrets hidden.
No experience needed – just imagination and a taste for the gothic.
Ages: 11–16
