Pozn.: Acclaimed Scottish poet and playwright, Liz Lochhead, has adapted Bram Stoker’s famous horror story, Dracula. Starring David Suchet as Dracula, the story tells of hapless solicitor Jonathan Harker, about to be married, who goes to Transylvania to sell the mysterious Count Dracula a Gothic house in London. Will his fiancйe ever see him again?

Acclaimed Scottish poet and playwright Liz Lochhead’s adaptation of Dracula, starring David Suchet in the title role, concludes tonight. Jonathan has escaped from Count Dracula’s castle and his fiancйe, Mina, is rushing to Budapest to be by his side. But neither of them has any idea that Dracula is rushing in the opposite direction, towards Mina’s sister Lucy. Who can save them now?

Two-part radio adaptation of Liz Lochhead’s stage play, first performed at the Edinburgh Lyceum in 1985. Liz Lochhead’s dramatisation of Bram Stoker’s novel remains generally faithful to the original, but combines some of the characters and condenses events to fit into the requirements of a play.
