Perfectly timed for fall, Tacoma Arts Live presents Dracula. Immerse yourself in a night of frights as the Roosevelt Room at Tacoma Armory is transformed into Dracula’s lair. Directed by Tacoma Art Live’s departing CEO, David Fischer and based on the classic horror novel by Bram Stoker. Local Pacific Northwest playwright, Steven Dietz, presents a play that is true to the original text but brings an updated feel to the classic tale of good versus evil. It’s the perfect treat this Halloween.
