GHOSTLY chills are in store when the West End production of The Woman in Black comes to the Churchill Theatre. The play has been running at Covent Garden's Fortune Theatre since 1989.
Stephen Mallatratt's adaptation of Susan Hill's best-selling novel tells the story of a lawyer, Arthur Kipps, who is obsessed with a curse he believes has been cast over him and his family by the ghost of a Woman in Black.
He engages a young actor to help him tell his story and exorcise his deep-rooted fears.
Between them the pair reach further and further into Kipps' darkest memories, and he recounts chilling events. Reality begins to blur as they find themselves caught up in a terrifying spectral world.
Arthur Kipps is played by actor Robert Demeger, who recently appeared as the doctor in Henry IV at the Donmar Warehouse.
The Young Actor is played by Timothy Watson. Timothy appeared last year at the Churchill in The Shell Seekers with Rosemary Leach, and played Tristan in Footballers' Wives.
October 31 to November 5. The Woman in Black, Churchill Theatre, Bromley, box office 0870 060 6620.
