Why can’t he stop thinking about him? An obsessive quest follows to track down this man and find out his identity. A quest that leads to madness and death. In Bewitched, Edith Wharton takes us into a bleak world of isolated farms , snow-covered fields and frozen ponds that reflects the lives and minds of the people who live there. Mrs Routledge has caught her husband cheating on her. She has seen her husband meeting in secret with his former sweetheart, Ora Brand. Problem. But it’s a bigger problem than you might think.

Ghost Stories

The Leper Chapel · Cambridge

Richard Spaul returns to The Leper Chapel with Ghost Stories. Two fabulous stories by female writers from the early twentieth century. In Elizabeth Bowen’s Pink May, a woman cheats on her husband and is haunted by a female ghost. In Edith Wharton’s Miss Mary Pask, a woman travelling in Europe visits the house of a friend’s sister, whom she subsequently recalls died a year earlier. Combined with jazz and music hall songs channelled as if from beyond the grave, Ghost Stories makes for a fantastically frightening evening out.

2:22 A Ghost Story

Buscot Park Theatre · Faringdon

A Dinner party; A haunted house; A tragic secret. As the clock ticks towards 2:22am tensions amongst the four dinner guests start to rise and reality begins to unravel. Is there really something in the house, or is someone losing their mind? 2:22 A Ghost Story is full of twists and will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final chilling moment. Only Four performances, each starting at 7.30pm. Our bar will be serving wines, beer and soft drinks from 6.45pm and during the interval. Cash or card payments accepted. The theatre is quite remote, so a car is needed for access, and there is a short walk from the car park to the theatre. The auditorium is accessed via a flight of stairs, and the seating itself is raked, which makes it unsuitable for those with reduced mobility (wheelchair users, people who rely on a walking frame)
