When the Royal Swedish Opera announced their “Night of the Vampires” dress rehearsal event on Facebook on 15 September, it became clear that there is a major popular culture interest in vampires. In the invitation people were asked to “come dressed to match you most beautiful inner vampire” – in only a few hours every seat had been booked.
The world premiere of Dracula at the Swedish Royal Opera will take place on 28 October, but two days before, for the dress, 1,000 vampires will emerge from their dungeons and take over the opera house.
