Two of Charles Dickens' creepy tales told with a comic twist; like The Woman in Black but funnier, and with fewer people!
The Queer Chair from The Pickwick Papers tells the story of Tom Smart, who, sheltering from a storm for the night, gets more than he bargained for from a wizened and debauched piece of furniture!
Then in The Ghosts of the Mail, after a well-lubricated supper in the Old Town of Edinburgh, Jack Martin climbs into a compound containing the derelict skeletons of old coaches and falls asleep, whereupon he wakes as a passenger on an eighteenth-century mail coach, with three creepy companions...
From the team who brought you the hilarious detective mash-up, Done To Death, By Jove!, The Ghost of a Smile has been adapted and directed by Gavin Robertson and is performed by Nicholas Collett.
