Sexy vampire ‘sanctuary’
A BLOOD-SUCKING good time awaits at the Cairns Performing Arts Centre with the return of Dracula’s to Cairns with their new show ‘Sanctuary’ filled with insanity, comedy, music and sultriness.
From September 26 to 28 the sexiest vampires are back in town with the return of Dracula’s Sanctuary showcasing the best of cabaret, acrobatics, music and all the vampiric flare as part of their national tour.
Newman Entertainment chief executive and show producer Luke Newman said this was a show not to miss, full of fun and unexpected moments.
“We’re very excited to be coming back to Cairns, we were there about 18 months ago with our very first touring show which was a huge success, so we’re bringing Sanctuary back which is a completely new show from start to finish,” he said.
“We have supersized everything, bigger, brighter and louder, and the show itself is a rollercoaster of variety with everything from rock ‘n’ roll to burlesque, magic, puppetry, comedy, so it’s a mixed bag of entertainment and a great fun night out.”
With Sanctuary Dracula’s brings a fresh new plot of vampires at an asylum with two doctors and main characters and all of the vampire patients who bring fresh acts and lots of entertainment to the show.
Lead cast James Smart’s journey includes dazzling performances on Carnival Cruise Lines and at Imagine Dubai and fellow cast member, Amber Flaherty has left her mark in London, performing in live concerts and the Park Chinois Cabaret show. Celebrated aerial artists Spencer Craig and Caitlin Tomson-Moylan have performed with Cirque du Soleil and won international accolades in China and Italy.
“We have nine extremely talented cast members, all from very different backgrounds, some are international acrobats, great musicians, dancers, vocals and comedians,” he said.
“We’re halfway through our Australian tour and it’s been phenomenal, we’re excited to get up north with Sanctuary.
“It is a spectacle of seduction and silliness, with plenty of fangs, feathers and flirting, it is in your face and pure energy. The show has it all and you will not want to miss it.”
Mr Newman said CPAC would be turned into Dracula’s den with decoration on the foyer, themed cocktails at the bar, and characters bringing the fun at the entrance.
