Live to Your Living Room

Back by popular demand following his gripping candlelit Halloween performance, we welcome Robert Lloyd Parry and his spine-tingling retelling of M R James’ finest ghost stories in A Warning to the Curious!

Telling scary tales by the fireside has been a Christmas tradition for centuries, and this performance offers two eerie stories for your delectation: Lost Hearts and A Warning to the Curious.

What to expect: Gather friends and family, light the candles and prepare to be scared as Robert Lloyd Parry embodies the spirit of M R James.

Expect hair-raising tales of vengeful ghosts, haunted treasure, and threatening sea mists descending around seaside towns.
