English Students Experience Immersive Dracula Performance

On the evening of 5 October, the Halloween season came early for our Sixth Form English students, as a group of our Lower and Upper Sixth English Literature A Level students visited Portchester Castle for an immersive performance of Bram Stoker’s famous  novel ‘Dracula’.

With audience participation galore, a few screams and jumps, and many many many steps of the castle’s spiral staircases, our students were treated to a series of dramatic monologues and mini-performances in relation to their Gothic unit’s core text, really bringing it to life (or death!).
