About the event
A lawyer hires an actor to tutor him in recounting to family and friends a story that has long haunted him concerning events that transpired after attending the funeral of his late client, an elderly recluse. There, he caught sight of the woman in black — the mere mention of whom terrifies the locals. This eerie show brings theatre magic to your autumn season, blurring the lines between what happened in the past, what is happening now, and who could be in the room with us...
