Drakula the Rock Opera is based upon the novel Dracula by Bram Stoker. It has been produced five times in four different countries and has received positive reviews.
“This performance was a sensual feast for the eyes and even more so for the ears. . . . The primary quality of musicals will always be their entertaining value. In this respect, this production was an enjoyable experience, most of all because the music, and especially the singing, was exciting.”

“[Linke’s opera] varies from heavy rock to unvarnished love ballads, the whole being very harmonious and suitably dramatic for the tale's turn of events . . . The audience really liked what it saw and heard.”

“The production was awesome . . . Throughout the play the music added that extra element that left a lasting impression on the audience.”
