The Moonlit Road and other ghostly tales (2015/16 tour)

Inspired by Ambrose Bierce, Edgar Allan Poe, M.R. James, Emile Zola, and many others.

Back on tour in theatres throughout Scotland September 2015 to January 2016.

A young man crouches in the corner of his bedroom late one night and waits. He waits. He waits, for something terrible to come for him.

This town is the home of many a strange tale. Disturbing events, skeletons in closets, things half glimpsed.

But our young narrator isn’t afraid. Because his own tale is perhaps the strangest and most disturbing of the lot...

Reviews

3 stars

Director Andy Corelli does a fine job at bringing them to life... the inventiveness of his staging. The actor (Philip Kingscott) does great work... drawing us into the what-happens-next tension of the gothic tales.

The Scotsman

3 stars

Kingscott turns the entire performance around, gaining stamina and ultimately leading to an extremely captivating performance... his passion brings each story to life, embodying every character be it man or woman with equal vigour and giving heart to the tale... ...The poetic flow and aptitude of Caroline Dunford and Graham Gibson’s writing... ...Appealing to our inner curiosity and childhood fascinations with the supernatural, The Moonlit Road is an enjoyable escapade into the hauntings of our inner self
