The Turn of the Screw @ The Basement

Voices echo through the cold halls, visions of the past colour every dank shadow; blind empty and alone, a young governess reaches out for the spectres of her past. 

As part of the Auckland Fringe Festival, Henry James’ classic ghost story is given a new life on the stage. Oscar Wilde called James’ original story ‘a most wonderful, lurid, poisonous little tale’, now masterfully recreated using live music, movement and puppetry from a sterling ensemble cast.
