The Turn of the Screw [2027]

At Derby Theatre, Derby · 7 performances from Tue 16 Feb to Sat 20 Feb.

A world premiere by Morgan Lloyd Malcolm and based on the seminal ghost story by Henry James. 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
