NO ONE IS LISTENING
(A Ghost Story)
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.
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.
