COUNT DYKULA

Soho Theatre, Tue 11 Feb – Sat 1 Mar 25 2025

and Edinburgh Fringe 2025

Co-created with AirlockTheatre in association with Soho Theatre

 

COUNT DYKULA is a genre and gender bending goth adventure musical that asks the question: why are we still pressuring queer people to fit in with straight culture? 

 

Butch loner Count Dykula isn't the typical vampire at Scare University; she’s not like the ultra-femme, busty-bloodsucker school principal. She loves a garlic naan and can only successfully turn into a bat after a couple of beers. With her masculine pride hanging on by a cheap carabiner, Dykula's mission is to take down Scare U's sinister ruling that there is a 'right way to be a monster'. 

 

This ‘total crowd-pleaser' (★★★★ A Young(ish) Perspective) of a show premiered at Soho Theatre’s Main House in 2025 to critical acclaim.
