Let the foremost writers of all time pin you to your seat this Autumn, as Theatrical Niche tour age-old ghost stories with a modern kick. Literary genius from the likes of Bram Stoker, Edgar Allen Poe and M. R. James will be showcased in full technicolour, using electrifying physical theatre and blood-curdling storytelling techniques.
The most terrifying of tales have been hand-selected in an artfully choreographed production to both scintillate and terrify. In the run up to Halloween, we bring you STILL THE BEATING OF MY HEART; classic tales from throughout our history and heritage, brought to you in a uniquely creepy show that will have you looking over their shoulders until All Saints Day.
Witness the little-told but beautifully crafted stories from the UK and beyond in this brilliant mixture of theatre-craft and pure scare-mongering. New adaptations by both Knapton and Twigg revitalise the work for a modern audience whilst maintaining the undeniable horror at their very core. We take the audience further into a world of darkness and lost souls utilising Knapton’s unique direction and exquisite physical theatre, showcasing leading acting talent from London.
