Vampire pop opera Blood/Love is now in previews at Theater 555 Off-Broadway, and Playbill has an up close and personal look at one of the show's numbers, "Last Drop".

Performed by Brooke Simpson, the energetic number is one of many that take place in the sultry nightclub that blossoms to reveal the world of the undead. Check out the video above.

The production, which officially opens March 3, is currently scheduled for a limited run through March 29. Blood/Love is the newest project by Hunter Bird, one of the creative minds behind the immersive Off-Broadway revival of The Phantom of the Opera, Masquerade. It continues the current Off-Broadway trend of experiential productions.

Directed by Bird (Masquerade), Blood/Love is written by Carey Sharpe and Grammy nominee Dru DeCaro. Sharpe also plays Valerie Bloodlove.

Valerie is the world's first vampire. For thousands of years, she ruled the night, but now, she's thirsty for more. Set in a sultry nightclub, the former queen of the underworld searches for a meaning to her existence beyond eternal bloodshed. Her endless night changes when she meets a mortal soul with his own devilish secret.
