Forget all the bloodsucking politician jokes. Opening tonight and going through November 4, 2012 is the Washington Ballet's company premiere of Dracula. They promise the production will be sexy and very theatrical... Choreographer Michael Pink aims to stay true to the original novel. His dancers embody much more dimensional characters in this production than you would expect in typical ballet recitals. It looks like the costumes will be gorgeous and Goth... Hmm, I might need to hop a bus down to the country capital for this one.
