Dracula the musical

DRACULA, the musical by Evans, Orton & Lynn

Sang de Vie Productions Ltd. produced the professional concept album of seventeen tracks from the work in 2006 and the video of “Within My World”, from the show, was produced in 2007. The video was launched on the internet and on the o-music television channel during 2008. Since the release of the concept album, the Dracula musical had been further improved and developed as a stage show. The producers intend to premiere the work as soon as possible. At this point, we hope to see this happen within the next year.

The Dracula musical concept CD is available from CD Baby, Amazon, Dress Circle, the Sound of Music store and many other online sales outlets; including iTunes and CD Universe.

DRACULA - The NEW and COMPLETE version of the musical.

We have started recording more numbers for the new, fully orchestrated, version of the Dracula musical. The soundtrack will include an additional ten numbers from the work, including recently written material. This process will take several months to complete, from which an all new CD version of the reworked musical will be produced later in 2010.

Thanks to the CD, internet, radio and television broadcasts, this musical version of Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’ already has an established following and growing worldwide fan base.

Dracula Musical

September / October Update.
It seems to be that time again
It is the second anniversary of the Dracula musical concept album release. The CD continues to sell well throughout the world and via internet sales and downloads.
It has now been ten months since the filming of the song “Within My World” from the musical, Dracula.
The video continues to be watched by thousands of people via Video networking sites, like YouTube, and now by many more thousands in Europe via television broadcasts.
The video began its broadcasting cycle in July 2008 and continues to play on the O-Music channel.
During the past few months the creative team have been writing new material for a future production of the work.
Some of the new material was to be performed (tried out) this year but, as luck would have it, a better opportunity has arisen for the work.
The creative team are hoping to make an announcement about this later in the New Year.
In the meantime, the team are working on their individual projects. One of these is a collaborative project between two members of the team.

The Dracula musical video, “Within My World” premiered on European television in July. Thanks to Sky Television’s oMusic channel.

More information about the premiere of the professional musical, Dracula, by Evans, Orton and Lynn will be announced in the New Year.

In the meantime, you can still buy the professionally produced CD of Dracula from CD Baby, iTunes, Amazon, the official Dracula musical website and many other online stores. The CD is also available from Dress Circle, London, and at the Sound of Music store in Germany.

You can also watch the professionally directed video of “Within My World”, from the Dracula musical, on Sky TV’s oMusic channel.

The production team will release more news concerning their professional musical, Dracula, during the next two months.

Thank you

DRACULA MUSICAL REVIEW from a recent issue of WHAT’S ON STAGE - The UK Theatre Magazine :

“Evita started as a concept album. Why not Dracula? This 70 minute CD has already gathered a battalion of fans (or should they be fangs?). It’s a powerful new Gothic musical that remains faithful to the original novel and has enough dramatic bite to keep you listening well beyond moonrise.

With music by Christopher J. Orton and Lyrics by Gareth Evans, the songs deliver just the right measure of dramatic passion to get the blood pumping. And when you’ve got one hell of a vocalist like Les Miserables stalwart Michael McCarthy hitting all the right notes in the title role, something really does begin to quiver on the side of the neck. First the concept. Then the concert? Next, the West End?”

A few points of fact:

1: The concept album was just that. A concept album of the proposed musical. Already, rewrites and edits are being undertaken, and new material written, for the recording of the complete work.

2: The character of “Dracula” in this musical is our interpretation of that very same cold and calculating character from Stoker’s original novel.
