You may have seen a play in a theater, you may have even seen Dracula before, but have you seen it in a large granite fort?!

The Ten Bucks Theater will present DRACULA, adapted by Steven Dietz from Bram Stoker's classic novel. The play is being directed by Benjamin Layman at historic Fort Knox in Prospect.
