Hauntings - Ghost Stories of E.F. Benson and M.R. James
Details
Performed by Gerard Logan (Olivier Nominee & Winner of The Stage Newspaper’s ‘Best Solo Performer of the 2011 Edinburgh Festival’) Directed by Gareth Armstrong Music by Simon Slater Hauntings is a spellbinding evening of three tales of the supernatural from two of the world’s greatest writers of ghost stories, E.F. Benson and M.R. James. From E.F. Benson comes: ‘Naboth’s Vineyard’ – in which just deserts are meted out to an unscrupulous lawyer, & ‘The Hanging of Alfred Wadham’ – in which the forces of the devil test a man of faith to his limits. From the master of the ghost story genre, M.R. James, comes: ‘Oh, Whistle and I’ll Come to You, My Lad’ – in which a medieval spirit strikes terrorizes an arrogant professor. With masterful storytelling from the award-winning actor Gerard Logan, Hauntings will transport you to a world of invisible, but terrifyingly present, spirits. “Logan is astounding….He takes a strong script and flies it to the stars” Edinburgh Festival 2016 Review – 5 STARS “Watching Logan work is like being privy to a wonder of nature and remains with you … A true masterpiece of solo performance” The Edinburgh Guide – Edinburgh Festival 2015 – 5 STARS
