Count Dykula is a musical comedy theatre show by Airlock Theatre in association with Soho Theatre, performed at the Ace Dome. Butch loner Count Dykula loves her life despite being technically dead, preying on humans who stray behind the big Asda. Trouble arrives when Scare University preaches 'the right way to be a monster' and Dykula sets out to tear down the ultra-femme busty bloodsuckers who rule the school. From the creators of Pansexual Pregnant Piracy and Lesbian Space Crime, the show runs 60 minutes and is suitable for ages 16 and over.
Why see this show?
A gothic LGBTQ+ musical comedy about a butch vampire taking on the establishment, from the creators of Pansexual Pregnant Piracy. Irreverent, gory and gleefully queer, this 60-minute show at the Ace Dome is unlike anything else at the Fringe.
