Job Specifics:

Details:

 Mina Westerman – Mina is strong, assertive, protective and loyal. Mina fights for progressive attitudes towards women and class, while at the same time being concerned about protecting her role and her family’s role in society. She is far stronger and braver than she knows. Also plays Vampire Bride 2 (Female, 25-35)
 Lucy Westerman – Mina’s younger sister, “dreaming her young girl dreams” Lucy, even though not a child, has a fresh innocent childlike quality to her, though her topics of conversation are often anything but childlike. She is vivacious and flirtatious. Also plays Vampire Bride 3. (Female, 18-25)
 Florrie Hathersage – Westerman’s new maid. “She is very pretty and just a little nervous”. Florrie is counsel to both sisters throughout the story. She also has her own story – the ‘downstairs’ part of the play to the Westerman’s ‘upstairs’ story. Also plays Vampire Bride 2. (Female, 18-30)
 Nurse Nisbett - nurses who work at Bedlam. A sadits. (Female, 25-40)
 Nurse Grice – nurses who work at Bedlam. A masochist. (Female, 25-40)
 Jonathan Harker – A solicitor, keen to impress. An English gentleman (still wet behind the ears) from a public school. Naïve. Has to find strength to survive. (Male, 20-30)
 Doctor Arthur Seward – A talented doctor. Strict but fair. Married to his job, loves it and lives for it. Is, without his knowing, a romantic at heart. Has to battle his scientific beliefs and values against those of superstition and vampires. (Male, 25-35)
 Dracula – a role that is impossible to describe in just a few words. The actor playing Dracula will need a lot of stage presence as well as the guts to take on, and not be scared by, the role, coffins and the audience’s pre-conceived ideas. The actor will need to be able to do/learn an Eastern European accent. (Male, any age)
 Van Helsing – A professor, described as “a philosopher and metaphysician, and one of the most advanced scientists of his day.” Not fearless but knows that fear is to be respected and must be confronted. Again presence is very important for this role. (Male, 40 +)
 Renfield – A patient in bedlam. “He rocks back and forth, he sometimes catcalls and chants. He is presently gabbling manically.” This is not a comic role (it’s often played as comic relief). A very intense role. Again it needs an actor that is not scared of taking on such an iconic character from Dracula mythology. The actor will need a lot of energy and stamina. (Male, any age)
 Orderly Drinkwater – a silent role. An orderly at Bedlam and perhaps the only sane person there. Drinkwater is silent for a reason not because the character is a small role. (Male or female, 25-40)
 Dr Goldman – An other doctor at Bedlam, a small role, however will be used thought the bedlam scenes (Male or female, 25-40)
