Forget everything you think you know about string quartets and prepare to be blasted into space with Bowjangles – an irreverent, anarchic group of genre-spanners who bring music, theatre and comedy together in a way you’ve never seen before. Fresh from a five-star knock-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe, that left audiences on their feet, the foursome is now heading to venues across the UK.
Dracula in Space is a hilarious and totally original musical comedy that sees the award-winning quartet heading into outer space to meet a mysterious benefactor whose proposition seems a little too good to be true. But what happens when their lead violinist starts to act a little strangely?
This sci fi horror musical gets us thinking – would you sell your soul in order to sell your art? Dracula in Space is an explosive production that is a love letter to classic horror films and their iconic scores, but at its heart, it’s a story of friendship and camaraderie.
With over 15 years of performing under their belts, Bowjangles have performed all over the world from rural village halls to concert halls, festivals and street performances, hospitals and the occasional prison. In 2019, the company made their Off-Broadway debut, performing at SoHo Playhouse, New York.
