Show of the Week – The Woman In Black

First Published 26 January 2017, Last Updated 1 August 2018

Susan Hill’s acclaimed ghost story comes dramatically alive in Stephen Mallatratt’s ingenious stage adaptation. Now celebrating 27 terrifying years in the West End, Robin Herford’s gripping production is a brilliantly successful study in atmosphere, illusion and controlled horror.

A lawyer obsessed with a curse that he believes has been cast over him and his family by the spectre of a Woman in Black, engages a sceptical young actor to help him tell his terrifying story and exorcise the fear that grips his soul. It all begins innocently enough, but then, as they reach further into his darkest memories, they find themselves caught up in a world of eerie marshes and moaning winds.

At the Fortune Theatre Tue-Sat 20:00, and Tue & Thu 15:00, Sat 16:00. Tickets are reduced to only £25 all this week! See our What’s On Sale page.
