About the Show

Overnight, the weather has turned in a small town. A war has been declared and there’s no one who can stop it.
One family sounds the warning, but what can you do when denial is as easy as keeping your head down?

Award-winning actor Paula Arundell (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child) sends your pulse sky-rocketing in this adrenaline-shot adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s classic gothic horror that Hitchcock immortalised in film.

Lights off, headphones on, it is time to be immersed in a theatrical feat of audio engineering. Enter a nightmarish soundscape of flying feathers, murderous swoops and thrilling carnage directed by Matthew Lutton (responsible for making you scream during Picnic at Hanging Rock).

As you dodge and duck out of reach, just remember: the big-wigs in the city won’t save you.
