Full production description

Step into the liminal space where the clock strikes thirteen and the ordinary dissolves into the uncanny. The Witching Hour brings together a collection of new writing from emerging playwrights exploring the eerie; where the veil between worlds wears thin. Step into new realms where the scriptures become unscripted, the frightening become the frightened and the paranormal becomes… normal? This work-in-progress performance blurs reality and imagination and invites its audience to confront darkness, within and without. Each piece is a glimpse of a bold new voice in contemporary theatre. Expect haunting narratives, veiled humour and provocative performances. From distortions of classic characters to tales twisted beyond recognition, The Witching Hour is a celebration of the places.
