About

Hauntings

An evening of three tales of the supernatural from two of the world’s greatest writers of ghost stories, E.F. Benson and M.R. James.

From E.F. Benson, famed for his Mapp and Lucia comic novels, comes ‘Naboth’s Vineyard’ - where just desserts are meted out to an unscrupulous lawyer, and ‘The Hanging of Alfred Wadham’ - in which the forces of the devil test a man of faith to his limits.

From the acknowledged master of the ghost story genre, M.R. JAMS, comes ‘Oh, Whistle and I’ll Come to You, My Lad’ - a tale of how a medieval spirit terrorises an arrogant professor.

With masterful storytelling from the award-winning actor Gerard Logan, Hauntings will transport you to a dark, sinister world of the unexpected and the unexplainable.

‘Logan is astounding’ Edinburgh Festival 2016 Review – 5 stars

‘A true masterpiece of solo performance’ The Edinburgh Guide - Edinburgh Festival 2015 – 5 stars

Gerard Logan won The Stage Best Solo Performer of the 2011 Edinburgh Festival Award and Best Actor Award at the 2014 Buxton Fringe Festival

Directed by Gareth Armstrong who has developed and directed many successful solo shows, including his own award-winning ‘Shylock’.

Accompanied by a beautiful, original and specially commissioned score by the award-winning RSC composer, Simon Slater.
