Tuck into Dracula! 

DATE

September 29, 2025

Jigsaw Stage Productions invite you to tuck into Dracula in Steventon, Didcot, Challow & Grove between Halloween and Sunday, 9th November 

This autumn, the shadows stir and the undead rise as Jigsaw Stage Productions bring a chilling new adaptation of Bram Stoker’s classic gothic novel to life.  

Written and directed by Liam Downes, this original yet faithful take on Dracula captures the haunting atmosphere and timeless terror of the story that has fascinated audiences for over a century. Darkness falls as Count Dracula crosses from Transylvania to England, bringing with him a creeping horror that infects hearts, homes, and souls. From candlelit chambers to storm-lashed coastlines, from whispered fears to blood-curdling encounters, expect a world of mystery, madness, and monstrous hunger, as the Count’s influence spreads and a band of unlikely heroes fight for survival against an ancient evil. 

Liam tells us: “This production is both a tribute to the novel and a fresh reimagining for the stage to bring the original vampire story to new audiences. Shadows move, secrets unravel, and something inhuman waits just beyond the flicker of the lamplight… Step into the darkness. But beware – for once invited, Dracula never truly lets you go. Join us, if you dare!” 

Performances at 7.30pm on Friday, 31st October, at Steventon Village Hall; Saturday, 1st November at Northbourne Community Centre, Didcot;  Saturday, 8th November, at Challow Village Hall & Sunday, 9th November, at Old Mill Hall, Grove.Tickets £10pp on the door or online via jigsawstageproductions.co.uk
