About Plexus Polaire
Plexus Polaire present a hypnotic reimagining of Bram Stoker's gothic horror, placing Lucy Westenra at the centre. As reality fractures around her, Lucy drifts between dream and nightmare, victim and liberator. Life-sized puppets and human performers collide with original music and cinematic video in an intoxicating descent into desire, fear and female emancipation. Wordless and visually breathtaking, the 60-minute production blurs the line between beauty and horror, human and puppet, life and death. Performed at Lennox, Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026. Age guidance: 14+.
Why see this show?
