Original Theatre, Trafalgar Theatre Productions & JAS Theatricals present the world premiere of
MURDER IN THE DARK
by Torben Betts Directed by Philip Franks
A spine-chilling ghost story, turned psychological thriller starring TV and stage favourites Tom Chambers (Holby City, Casualty, Waterloo Road, Father Brown and Strictly Come Dancing champion) and Susie Blake (Victoria Wood’s As Seen on TV).
What happens when the lights go out?
It’s New Year’s Eve, when a car crash on a deserted road brings famous but troubled singer Danny Sierra and his dysfunctional family to an isolated holiday cottage in rural England.
From the moment they arrive, a sequence of inexplicable events begin to occur… and then the lights go out… As the tension rises and deeply buried secrets come to light, you’ll find nothing is quite as it seems.
From the mind of acclaimed writer Torben Betts and produced by the award-winning Original Theatre, who brought you the smash hit production of The Mirror Crack’d by Agatha Christie, Murder in The Dark will have you on the edge of your seats until the final chilling twist. Are you brave enough to uncover the truth?
Book your tickets and join us for a theatrical experience like no other.
Cast includes Rebecca Charles (The Dresser), Jonny Green (It’s a Sin), Owen Oakeshott (Witness for the Prosecution) and Laura White (Doctors).

Reviews
“A narrative that looks straight out of a Black Mirror episode, one that will make your toes curl the more the story unfolds.”
East Midlands Theatre
“A gripping multi-layered drama.”
Salisbury Journal
“If you enjoy a good spooky story, you will not be disappointed, but it is also for those who aren’t a ghost story style fan because you will have just as much fun as the humour is more than worth it.”
