Discover Contemporary Ghost Stories this Autumn

By

Ghosts don’t always stay in the past.

All-new for 2024, gather close for a chilling evening of contemporary tales and music from the ‘Haunted Counties’ of East Anglia.  Following the sell-out success of last year’s tour, HighTide brings you four brand new stories in More…Ghost Stories by Candlelight.  

Taking inspiration from ghost stories of old, this contemporary production brings the genre right into the modern age, with settings that represent the writers’ own connections to the East of England, from urban Cambridge to the Essex salt-marsh; leafy Suffolk villages to the bracing North-Norfolk coast.

Following last year’s success, this Autumn’s tour returns to many venues including Theatre Royal Bury St Edmonds and the Seagull Theatre. The production will also play in atmospheric non-theatrical spaces such as Colchester’s Layer Marney Towers and Old Divinity Hall in Cambridge.
