More about The Turn of the Screw

A masterwork of psychological suspense, The Turn of the Screw is Henry James’ iconic 1898 novella and a landmark of gothic fiction that has influenced generations of writers, including Susan Hill’s The Woman in Black. Now reimagined for the stage, this brand-new adaptation brings its unsettling atmosphere and ambiguity to the Arcola Theatre.

England. A remote country house. A young governess is hired to care for two children, beginning what appears to be an idyllic new life – but something about them hints at a darker presence. Desperate to protect them from what she believes to be malevolent spirits, she descends into a world of increasing uncertainty. Are the ghosts real, or is she projecting something far more terrifying?
