The legendary production of Susan Hill’s chilling ghost story The Woman in Black comes to Alexandra Palace Theatre.
One of the most successful and longest-running theatre shows in the history of London’s West End, this gripping production is a brilliantly successful study in atmosphere, illusion and controlled horror. Now seen by over 7 million people worldwide, The Woman in Black continues to delight and terrify audiences of all generations.
Obsessed with a curse that he believes has been cast over him and his family by the spectre of a Woman in Black, Arthur Kipps engages a sceptical young actor to help him tell his terrifying story and exorcise the fear that grips his soul.

The story of The Alexandra Palace Theatre is truly unique. Opened in 1875, the Theatre was a place of spectacle and delight where audiences of up to 3,000 people were entertained by pantomime, opera, drama and ballet. A feat of Victorian engineering, the impressive stage machinery was designed so that performers could appear, fly into the air and disappear through the stage.
However, it struggled to compete with the might of the West End and the theatre went on to be used as a cinema, a chapel and the home of music hall stars before a spell as a BBC prop store and workshop. For 80 years it has been closed to the public, a hidden gem perched high above the city.

Really enjoyed the performance not a dull moment, with some good shocks as well.

Theatre was small and compact. Bar asked me if I want to double up on a spirit, I said no. Only after I noticed it was only £1.50 to double up. Otherwise performance was great. Two actors really done there job, had us enticed into the play. This is nothing like a big production, but for what they have and use it was great. I recommend this play to others that like suspense.

Excellent, cleverly presented and very entertaining. One of my favourites and they did it justice, bravo.
