ANNOUNCING: Auditions for The Woman in Black
About the Play:
Arthur Kipps, a young solicitor, is sent to the desolate Eel Marsh House to settle an estate. However, his routine assignment quickly spirals into a harrowing encounter with a malevolent spirit, the elusive and vengeful Woman in Black. As he recounts his terrifying experiences with the help of an Actor, the audience is drawn deeper into a story that blurs the lines between reality and nightmare.
In this chilling adaptation of Susan Hill’s classic ghost story, THE WOMAN IN BLACK transports audiences to a time when the veil between the living and the dead seems thinnest. As the nights grow long and shadows stretch further, the Victorian tradition of telling ghost stories around the fire comes alive on stage.
