The Turn of the Screw
A world premiere by Blackeyed Theatre and Arcola Theatre, based on the seminal ghost story by Henry James.
One of the most innovative, audacious companies working in contemporary English theatre”
The Stage on Blackeyed Theatre
England. A remote country house. A young governess, hired to care for two seemingly angelic children, begins what appears to be an idyllic new life. Yet there is something about the children that hints at a darker presence.
Desperate to protect them from what she believes to be malevolent spirits, she finds herself descending into a world of ambiguity, leading to one far-reaching question; are the ghosts real… or a projection of something far more terrifying?
A masterwork of psychological suspense and the inspiration for Susan Hill’s The Woman in Black, The Turn of the Screw is brought to life in this brand-new stage adaptation by Olivier Award-winning playwright Morgan Lloyd Malcolm, combining powerful performances, illusion and stylish theatricality.
