HighTide today announces tour dates for More…Ghost Stories by Candlelight. Following the sell-out success of their 2023 autumn tour of Ghost Stories by Candlelight, the East of England company brings together four new stories from playwrights in their home region to deliver this brand new, chilling production.
More…Ghost Stories by Candlelight is written by Tassa Deparis, James McDermott, Eloise Pennycott, and Aisha Zia. The creative team is completed by Olivier-nominated Emily Ling-Williams (Director), Anna Pool (Musical Director, Composer and Sound Designer), and Mona Camile (Designer). The new production is in association with Eastern Angles, Harlow Playhouse, Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds, and Shakespeare’s Globe.
Clare Slater, HighTide Artistic Director said today, “We were blown away by the popularity of last year’s tour so I’m delighted to offer audiences More…Ghost Stories by Candlelight. A whole new production celebrating four more fantastic playwrights from the East of England. Step into the shadowy corners of their imaginations and, this Hallowe’en, ask yourself “What am I haunted by?”
Jake Smith, Artistic Director of Eastern Angles added, “Eastern Angles are the regional touring theatre company for the East of England and are delighted to be producing in association with HighTide, More…Ghost Stories by Candlelight, written by an exciting group of East Anglian playwrights. Our region is steeped in folklore and mystery, offering a perfect landscape for horror. We can’t wait to join HighTide and help them to access and scare audiences across East Anglia and beyond on this tour.”
