In this thrilling venture into the unknown, master storyteller Vic Llewellyn takes us on a joyful, funny, and heartbreaking ride through the landscape of forgetfulness, Ghosts and lost memories.
When a (not so) famous actor Malcolm Aldcroft (Casualty) adapts the renowned Ghost story, Canon Alberic’s Scrapbook by M.R. James, his aim is to cause the audiences spines to tingle, and their hackles rise. He tells a tale of a haunting, so terrifying that we will question what is real and what is fiction. Malcolm guarantees a monster will materialise if the fear level of the room rises. With the aid of his FEAR-O-METRE, music, and puppetry, he explores the things we fear the most.
Vic Llewellyn is responsible for critically acclaimed shows, A Little Death, and The Castle Builder (with Kid Carpet). Both shows recently appearing in Paignton at The Palace Theatre, and the Eyeview pop up theatre. Also appeared with Little Bulb Theatre’s Four Seasons in The Scala, Brixham. Directed by Emma Williams. Music by Sam Halmarack
