Ghost of the Marsh

Deep within the misty marshes of a small seaside town, the solicitor Arthur Kipps lived through a terrifying and life changing experience. The haunting of a ghost, connected to the isolated house of his late client. To recover from this traumatic experience, Arthur has decided to hire an actor, who takes it upon himself to instil in him the confidence to tell his tale. Ghost of the Marsh is a horror themed play and a response to ghost stories set in the Victorian and Edwardian era, as told by authors such as M.R. James and Susan Hill.
