The ghosts and cast of Tall Stories’ World Premiere production of Oscar Wilde’s chilling tale, THE CANTERVILLE GHOST visited Blair Street Underground Vaults in Edinburgh today to launch the show, which plays at The Pleasance Courtyard throughout the festival.
At the vaults the ill-fated Otis family found themselves encountering more than just The Canterville Ghost, as the spooky surroundings set the tone for their time in Edinburgh.
Four Vaudevillian performers tell Wilde’s most gruesome tale through magic, ventriloquism and comedy with original music.
When the Otis family move into Canterville Hall, they’re warned about the fearsome ghost that stalks its corridors. But the Otis family are a thoroughly modern bunch. Has anyone warned the Canterville Ghost about them?
A darkly comic and marvellously musical show from award-winning theatre company Tall Stories.
