KINGS THEATRE

Haunting Julia

Tue 9 to Sat 13 October

Evenings 7.30pm
Matinee: Wed & Sat 2.30pm 

Duncan Preston (Acom Antiques, Dinnerladies, Emmerdale, Atticus Finch in To Kill A Mockingbird theatre tour) and Richard O’Callaghan star in the first ever UK tour of the critically acclaimed London production of Alan Ayckbourn’s haunting study of grief, obsession and the supernatural…

Julia Lukin was a musical prodigy.  At 8 years old she was writing symphonies, by the age of 19 the world was at her feet.  She had everything, but then her body was discovered in a pool of blood in a dingy attic…

Twelve years have passed and her father Joe (Duncan Preston) has never stopped asking “why?”  Was it really suicide?  Or was someone else with her on that fateful night…?
Joe wants answers – and tonight he shall have them...

This is Alan Ayckbourn as you’ve never seen him before.  The wit and masterful insight are all there, but this time in a chilling, thrilling ghost story that will have you jumping out of your seat. 

‘…as good as Hitchcock..’

The Guardian

‘…. this one is out of the top drawer…superb..’
 The Telegraph

‘…. full of tension and surprise...’ 
 The Sunday Express
