About

A spooky thriller Written & performed by Mark Carey
Produced by Giles Shenton

Mark Carey - writer of Into The Breach - has teamed up with Giles Shenton - producer of Old Herbaceous, Three Men in a Boat, Fagin?, and My Dog's Got No Nose - to bring you a spooky thriller set in the same dressing room, during the same play, at the same theatre, but 60 years apart.

During both time periods the theatre is hosting a performance of Hamlet where "time is out of joint" and “something is rotten”…

What is the unearthly link between the two productions?

How can the same things be happening to different people 60 years apart?

What secrets have been buried in the old dressing room under the stage?

Why are the actors fascinated by the old dressing room mirror?

Just don't look into it...you might not like what you see!

You’ll leave believing that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
