Who are your vampires?
Company F.Z lead you on a dark, grotesque journey through the psychology and mythology of Dracula, blood sucker. Beautiful and frightening by turns, we invite you to experience the threat and suspense of Dracula through a synthesis of movement, theatre and live music.

Collaborating with a series of established and diverse artists in the fields of sonic and visual art, classical and improvised music, circus and visual theatre, F.Z tell tales of Vampirism with emotional and physical eloquence.

Directed By Flick Ferdinando
Choreographed by John Paul Zaccarini

Who's afraid of Alfred Hitchcock?

In Autumn/Winter 2004, Company F.Z, in residence with Croydon College students, created an alternative Christmas show using material from their investigation into fears and phobias, inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's films, developing a score of visual theatre pieces.

’Let yourself be guided through a darkly humorous world that plays with circus, dance and comedy. An evening of beautiful, surprising and haunting images. Do you dare to step into the shower..’

This was the first production in a three year programme of commissions from Croydon Clocktower.

Directed by Flick Ferdinando
Choreography by John Paul Zaccarini
With Original Music by Peter Coyte
