The Turn Of The Screw
From the story by Henry James, the inspiration for the Netflix hit The Haunting of Bly Manor...
Based on the provocative tale of suspense, horror and repressed sexuality, this adaptation gives the famous story yet another turn of its own. A young governess journeys to a lonely English manor house to care for two recently orphaned children. But she is not their first governess...
Now the new governess has begun to see the specters haunting the children, and she must find a way to stop the fiends before it is too late. But one frightening question tortures the would-be heroine: Are the ghosts real, or are they the product of her own fevered imagination? September 17 - October 23, 2021

A madcap romp through the holiday season!
"A respectful homage and side-splitting parody at the same time." - Marcus Crowder, The Sacramento Bee November 27 - December 19, 2021
