A Devilishly Delicious Psychological Horror
After a sell-out run of shows at The Lantern theatre earlier in the year, A Very Dark Imagination returns for a special pre-Halloween performance of this devilishly delicious psychological horror!
An isolated cottage in the Welsh countryside. A storm raging overhead. A mass murderer on the run from the near-by institute for the criminally insane. A sudden knock at the door...
Nothing and nobody is quite what they seem in this devilishly dark psychological horror! Expect to gasp and then laugh and then gasp again at the sheer wickedness of it all! Inspired by horror and film noir movies of the 1940's, A Very Dark Imagination is a roller-coaster ride into the depravity of the human soul and the horrors that lay within.
From the creators of “The Enfield Poltergeist” comes A Very Dark Imagination. Set at the height of World War Two, Kiera Rhodes and Paul Voodini portray damaged characters engaged in a deadly game of cat and mouse as thunder, lightning, and the engines of German bombers rumble overhead! You will, we promise, never look at a potato peeler in quite the same way again.
Praise for previous productions:
“This... two-hander has real heart, with strong writing, stripped-back production and two great performances from Kiera Rhodes and Paul Voodini,” - Now Then Magazine
“Both [actors] very convincingly portray their very disturbed characters to great effect, whilst each in their own way continue to search for some kind of inner peace. The two actors clearly have enjoyed a close collaboration in producing this piece of work as they are so relaxed and comfortable with each other, both on stage and behind the scenes,” - Yorkshire Times
