‘Dracula’ to air on WWNC
Western Carolina University’s original radio broadcast adaptation of Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel Dracula will hit the Western North Carolina airwaves at 9 p.m. Oct. 31 in a special Halloween night program on WWNC-AM/570.
The hour-long show was originally staged in front of a live audience of nearly 1,000 people at WCU’s John W. Bardo Fine and Performing Arts Center in January. The cast featured students, faculty, staff and professional actors from across the university and the region. The 40-piece orchestra for the production was composed of WCU music faculty and students and string players from the Asheville Symphony Orchestra.
The station can be streamed at www.wwnc.com.
