Today, Ballet West launches 10 days of events leading up to the opening of its season premiere production of Dracula. ---

Ballet West's "Dracula Fest" begins today at Sandy Library (10100 S.

But that's just the start, as a series of lectures, film screenings and other events continue right up to the Oct. 21 opening of Dracula. Also on the schedule:
