A performance of short spinechilling plays created in this season’s Acting Up workshops led by Clare Prenton.

The workshops explored the plays Arsenic and Old Lace and The Weir. Arsenic and Old Lace is a classic play that tells the story of a drama critic who finds out that his aunts have been poisoning gentlemen callers and hiding them in the cellar; In The Weir by Conor McPherson local Irish men swap scary stories in an attempt to impress the sole lady in the bar…

These plays inspired the work…who knows which dark corners the writers imagined and decided to explore?
