The Vampire Lestat sets his story straight in a way only the Vampire Lestat can, by starting a band and going on tour.

Still, this is a striking and nervy piece of work that goes there over and over again. Jones has proven that he could steer this show through the novels’ more unhinged deviations and make it gripping.

"The Vampire Lestat" isn’t entertainment. It’s the most layered - and yet raw - form of storytelling. No other show is coming even remotely close to this.

4.5/5

An adaptation that feels darkly magical: ambitious, unapologetic, loud — musically and otherwise — and absolutely unforgettable.

4.5/5

As captivating as Tom Cruise’s Lestat was in the 1994 film, there is something about Reid’s performance as Lestat that takes the character to an entirely new level.
