One of our local theaters is doing a "feminist" production of Dracula next season, which makes me head-tilt a bit: is this a return to the original novel (which is very loving and celebratory of its female characters), or is this something else entirely? But we liked the previous productions by the same team, and we do like the novel, so we're likely to go.
