Unexplained events, doors that close themselves with a bang and mysterious noises that surround you can only mean that the spooky ghost story The Woman In Black has returned to the New Theatre stage for a week of chilling drama.
Audiences should prepare for a night of hair raising thrills as middle-aged lawyer Arthur Kipps tells his story. Obsessed with a curse that he believes has been cast over him and his family, he engages a sceptical young actor to re-enact his experiences at Eel Marsh House.
Together they turn the recital into a dramatic performance, the actor taking on the persona of Mr Kipps and the lawyer playing the various characters in the tale.
The clever use of props, special sound and lighting effects conjures up a Victorian world of sighing winds and eerie marshes. Combining lighting projections, clouds of dry ice, ear-splitting screams and the atmospheric power of the theatre, the production offers a real thrill of horror and a truly spine-chilling experience.
This gripping stage adaptation of Susan Hill’s novel has entertained, (and terrified!) over 7 million people and is currently celebrating its 21st year in the West End.
