Dracula: A Rock Ballet is a dynamic fusion of traditional Hungarian and Gothic storytelling with a live seven-piece rock score. Directed and choreographed by W. Earle Smith, former Artistic Director of Madison Ballet, this production reimagines the classic Dracula narrative through adrenaline-pushing ballet, high-energy rock music, and steam-powered visual design. The project draws on the expertise of composer and musician Michael Massey, whose live band drives the performance with a pulsating soundtrack. While the show has historical roots in Oshkosh (2015) and Madison (2013–2015), current 2025 tour dates have not been announced. Fans and newcomers alike can follow official channels for the latest updates on performances and engagements across the region.
