BREAKDOWN
DRUNK DRACULA
DESCRIPTION
The mischief-makers behind Drunk Shakespeare return from the crypt with Drunk Dracula鈥攁 boozy, sexy, blood-sucking Halloween romp through gothic horror, reality TV, and cult-classic comedy. Five actors. One drunk. Zero inhibitions.
Performers must be quick-witted, charismatic, and thrive in a highly interactive, immersive format. Think Shakespeare after dark meets Rocky Horror by way of Buffy and 鈥淭he Bachelor鈥�.
We encourage submissions from actors of all backgrounds, identities, and specialties.
The exciting world of Off-Broadway's hottest sensation, Drunk Shakespeare, is searching for versatile performers who exude charisma and creativity.
Every evening, a group of five skilled performers, members of 'The Drunk Shakespeare Society,' gather to put on a mesmerizing play. But here's the thrilling twist: one among them bravely indulges in multiple shots of liquid courage, setting the stage for an unforgettable performance.
Since 2014, Drunk Shakespeare has been entertaining audiences from all over the world with productions in NYC, Chicago, DC, Phoenix, and Houston. Drunk Shakespeare is a New York Times Critics鈥� Pick and the Chicago Tribune said it 鈥渕ay just wind up being one of the most enjoyable ways to experience a tragedy.鈥� Alumni from the cast have gone on to perform on Broadway, in the West End, Blue Man Group, The Deuce, Billions, Sunnyside and on national tours.
NOTE: All performers must be over the age of 21, comfortable with Drunk Shakespeare鈥檚 unique style of outrageous humor, and able to drink onstage approximately once per week.
SEEKING:
DRACULA
He/hiss. A supernatural thirst-trap with centuries of sexual tension and a taste for the theatrical. Equal parts seducer, predator, pop culture savant, and motivational speaker. Has the swagger of Edward Cullen, the bite of Lestat, and the thirst of a frat boy after leg day. A magnetic presence, strong physicality, and the ability to flip from menace to absurdity in a heartbeat. Accent work, crowd work, and improv chops required. Special skills: Vampiric charm, Shakespearean gravitas, and the ability to smolder while saying 鈥淚 want to suck your blood鈥nd your toes.鈥� NOTE: Some physical intimacy in the form of 鈥渘eck biting鈥� is required.
MINA / LUCY
She/her or they/them. Mina is our intelligent, bookish heroine whose arc slides into sultry submission鈥攁nd eventually, resistance. Lucy is the sex-positive steampunk bachelorette whose hot girl era meets its gothic match. Has comedic range, classical text comfort, and strong movement or dance ability. Able to deliver both Bravo confessional realness and poetic vulnerability, sometimes within the same sentence. NOTE: Some physical intimacy in the form of 鈥渘eck biting鈥� is required.
HARKER / SEWARD
He/him or they/them. Harker is the earnest but dim fianc茅 who wanders into a nightmare and returns changed. Seward is the slightly unhinged, well-meaning doctor-turned-simp for Lucy. This track blends clueless beta energy with passionate outbursts and the occasional earnest song lyric. Has strong comedic instincts, earnest romantic energy, and physical comedy prowess. This role is an ode to all the emotionally stunted nice guys from early 2000s romcoms. Bonus if you can cry while holding a Yuengling.
PROFESSOR BUFFY VAN YUENGLING
She/her or they/them. Singer & Slayer. A beer-wielding, stake-toting, vampire-slaying badass with a PhD in pop culture and pain. Think Buffy Summers meets Ellen Ripley meets Cardi B. Fierce, funny, ferocious. Exceptional vocal chops, bold presence, excellent comedic timing, and the ability to lead the climax of the show like a rockstar preacher in leather pants. Comfortable with audience interaction, singing, action choreography, and one-liners that slay鈥攍iterally.
HOST / ENSEMBLE / VILLAINS
Any pronouns. Dead or undead. The ultimate switch-hitter: narrator, game show host, Beetlejuice, Pennywise, Leatherface, Renfield, and more. A fearless improviser with insane range and a rolodex of impressions, horror references, and fourth-wall breaking moments. The Host is our anchor in the chaos鈥攁 guide, a menace, a comedic (if unhinged) genius. NOTE: Ideal for a seasoned emcee, stand-up, or multi-role performer who lives to hold the audience in the palm of their (possibly clawed) hand.
