The Turn of the Screw

T661922046
Miss Jessel is dead. A new governess arrives at a remote estate in Bly to care for Miles and Flora. Wild but angelic they charm their guardian with flowers, poetry and song. But as she grows to love her two wards, figures appear in the darkness outside and the corners of the house are haunted by those that have gone before. The Governess must confront her fear and protect the children from the alarming dangers that surround them.
Book by Henry James

Production details

DO NOT USE THIS ONE. This completely new, thrilling adaptation of Henry James' much-loved and genre defining classic ghost story Turn of the Screw lets you draw your own conclusions about the events at Bly and where guilt resides. The original inspiration for numerous films and Susan Hill's acclaimed The Woman In Black, Turn Of The Screw is both a fascinating psychological drama and a nerve-jangling ghost story. Quarry Theatre
