Then again, theatre folks can be more elitist than you imagine. Cynthia Erivo is not new to the West End. Great voice. I think back then she took on traditionally black women roles. Not sure if she can pull off dracula though lol.

She already played Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar.

Lol, have you watched that before or not? Go watch some of it on youtube, then you will understand why that could work.

Then try to compare against Dracula.

You should compare with the version of Dracula which Erivo will be in. A version that always had one woman playing all 23 characters.
