1981 Dracula Spectacula (Part A)

Wednesday 7th October, 1981at 8pm: Dracula Spectacula opens to incredibly appreciative crowds and was to run another three nights (Thurs 8th, Fri 9th and Sat 10th).  This was Gorokan's second MAJOR musical production and involved quite a large proportion of the school - both students along with staff.

Dracula is particularly memorable for the Gorokan High community, as the role of Dracula himself was played by none other than Robert Hackl.  For those unaware, Robert was tragically killed as a pedestrian on Scenic Road at San Remo only a few years after his dramatic and vocal triumph.

We have quite a lot of material on Dracula (thanks to Rachel Quirk for supplying me about half of this) so we'll split it up over about half a dozen blog entries.
