'Dracula: The Failings of Men' shines new light on centuries-old vampire myth at Shakespeare Tavern

Just in time for the spooky season, the Atlanta Shakespeare Company presents a new retelling of the vampire myth – as bloody, bone-chilling and bewitching as any before. “Dracula: The Failings of Men” is a collaborative production with Havoc Movement, the troupe specializing in aerial choreography, stunts, fights, and acrobatics. The show will be on stage at the Shakespeare Tavern from October 7 – 31. In this interview, “Dracula” director and Havoc Movement co-founder Jake Guinn speaks with “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes about the production.  

“I would actually say that our adaptation of Dracula is a bit truer to the book than other adaptive works that are already out there,” Guinn says.
