What to Watch For:

• Danny Robins is no stranger to scary happenings. He created the BBC’s Young Dracula series and also two podcasts that examine the supernatural. The Battersea Poltergeist examines a haunting that became national news, with one house beset by loud noises and objects flying around, while Haunted digs into people’s real experiences with ghosts — like a spirit trying to murder a couple’s baby daughter.
• Director Matthew Dunster also has form when it comes to chilling plays. He helmed Martin McDonagh’s A Very Very Dark Matter, about the disturbing world of Hans Christian Andersen, and also McDonagh’s Hangmen, featuring the second-best hangman in England — and a mysterious stranger who wreaks havoc.
• The show features illusions by Chris Fisher. He’s a member of the Magic Circle and made a key contribution to productions like Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and Back to the Future: The Musical.
• Also featured among this all-star creative team is designer Anna Fleischle, who collaborated with Matthew Dunster on A Very Very Dark Matter and Hangmen — winning Olivier, Critics’ Circle and Evening Standard Theatre Awards for the latter. She was Olivier nominated again for the play Home, I’m Darling and musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie.
