DRACULA, A COMEDY OF TERRORS by Gordon Greenberg & Steve Rosen

Ever wondered what would happen if you took Bram Stoker’s legendary vampire tale and put it into a blender with Mel Brooks, RuPaul, and The 39 Steps? You get a lightning-fast gender-bending re-imagining that features a Gen Z pansexual Count Dracula in the midst of an existential crisis.

In the treacherous mountains of Transylvania,a meek English real estate agent takes a harrowing journey to meet a new and mysterious client, who just happens to be the most terrifying and ferocious monster the world has ever known.

Las Mujeronas - Flamenco

823 Seymour Street Vancouver
Saturday, November 1, 2025, 7:30 – 8:30pm

Las Mujeronas brings together a collective of Flamenco Latinas in Vancouver to explore the impact of immigration on identity, memory, and cultural expression. Performed in both Spanish and English, with select texts translated for accessibility, the work seamlessly fuses flamenco dance, poetry, song, and storytelling to reflect the complex and layered experiences of migration. Drawing on the intercultural roots of flamenco, especially the Ida y Vuelta (going and coming) song forms that travelled between Spain and Latin America, the piece becomes a powerful act of reclaiming voice, space, and belonging. Through rhythm, movement, and lived experience, Las Mujeronas invites audiences into a bold and intimate reimagining of home and heritage.
Directed and choreographed by Jhoely Triana of Jhoely Triana Flamenco

Singer - Jafelin Helten
Guitarist - Gary Hayes
Percussionist - Davide Sampaolo

Dancers: Jhoely Triana (she/her), Marcela Lopez (she/her), Desiree Carlson Sanroman (she/her), Luiza Libardi (she/her), Rosa T Celis (she/her), and Jessica Oryall (she/her).

Oscar: Homage to the Rebel Maestro of Flamenco

Vancouver, BC
Thursday, November 6, 2025, 8 – 10pm

Oscar: Homage to the Rebel Maestro of Flamenco
NOV 6–9, 2025 
THE CULTCH HISTORIC THEATRE
1895 Venables St.

“Oscar” tells the story of the spectacular life and flamenco works of dancer, choreographer and maestro Oscar Nieto, brought to life by the professional flamenco dancers he mentored throughout his storied career and the musicians with whom he has shared the stage. “Oscar” features an award-winning cast of five dancers, two guitarists, two singers and a percussionist performing a selection of Oscar Nieto’s most treasured dance and music works. Spanning from the early 1970s to the present, these choreographies are interspersed with archival material and stories from Oscar’s own life — from his youth working the fields from Texas to Los Angeles, to his years touring internationally with Jose Greco, Lola Montes, and Antonio’s Ballet Siluetas, to his decades in Vancouver, where he continues to build a rich and inclusive community of talented and joyful flamenco artists and aficionados.
“Oscar” is a work of love, created in collaboration with artists he has mentored, in celebration of all that he has given the flamenco and dance communities of Canada, and in close collaboration with Oscar himself. A nationwide community of artists, aficionados and fans will gather in Vancouver to celebrate this truly remarkable man.
