THE GHOST'S TOUCH!
THE GHOST’S TOUCH! is a haunting play based on the chilling tale by Wilkie Collins, the author of The Woman In White. Widower Stephen Rayburn’s young daughter Lucy runs back to him from the woods in Kensington Gardens. He can see that she’s frightened. “Is it the dog?” he asks. “It’s not the dog,” she answers. “It’s the lady ... I think she might be mad!” The ghostly woman Stephen meets leads him into a web of lust and revenge that reaches out from beyond the grave. This 2-hander play with multiple recorded (or live) voices weaves a surreal, deeply emotional atmosphere where nothng is quite as it seems.
“the haunting that takes place in the play continues to haunt the audience long after they have left the theatre” (Thanet Gazette) “Mark Homer as Rayburn holds the production together masterfully … well-crafted, finely acted … sinister … voiced chillingly” “wonderful characterisation … Homer and Dwyer are both superb in their roles, delivering their lines with strength and clarity throughout the increasingly terrifying tale … cleverly written words … superbly crafted piece … **** Four Stars” (The Sussex Newspaper) “chilling and sinister … haunting tale … eerily-compelling … superbly acted … outstanding and compelling performances … an impressive theatrical production … a chilling and sinister atmosphere … enjoyable and thought-provoking theatre” “impressive … a different and distinctive piece of theatre ... it works” (Eastbourne Herald) “Excellent … smartly staged, brilliantly acted” (Rhiwbina.info) “A cleverly written, brilliantly performed and well executed piece of storytelling. It keeps the audience guessing throughout and wonderfully resolves its plot neatly at the conclusion”
