More information about 2:22 A Ghost Story
2:22 A Ghost Story in London is the first play written by Danny Robins, the creator of the award-nominated BBC podcasts Uncanny and The Battersea Poltergeist. The show was an instant sensation, with record-breaking seasons at the Noël Coward, Gielgud, Criterion, The Lyric Theatre, and The Apollo Theatre.
The talented creative team behind the play includes directors Isabel Marr (John Gabriel Borkman) and Matthew Dunster (The Seagull, A Very Very Very Dark Matter), Olivier-winning set designer Anna Fleischle (Hangmen), and illusions by Chris Fisher (Back To The Future: The Musical, Company).
Ian Dickinson (Angels In America, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time) is the Olivier-winning and Tony-nominated sound designer for 2:22 A Ghost Story.
“The use of sound is so important – the way the music goes from feeling comforting and seductive to feeling quite sinister,” said Danny Robins.
What to watch for
- 2:22 A Ghost Story is a play that has drawn in a younger audience than many plays. As writer Danny Robins said, "I wanted to create this thing that felt like an event…I like a big night out [where you] laugh, jump out your seats, scream, accidentally spill your drink on your mate – and then go off talking about it into the night. Most of our audiences are under 35, and I think a lot of them are people that haven't seen a play before. I love that."
- The play went across the pond to the United States, where it had its debut in 2022 in Los Angeles and then moved to Boston. It starred Constance Wu as Jenny, Anna Camp as Lauren, Adam Rothenberg as Sam, and Finn Wittrock as Ben.
- Critics have loved the play. Broadway World called it 'a fantastic piece of writing.' Time Out said the play is 'a cracking supernatural thriller.'
- 2:22 A Ghost Story has had over 500 performances in London since its premiere.
