The Ghost of a Smile

Adapted and directed by Gavin Robertson. Performed by Nicholas Collett.
Two of Charles Dickens creepy tales with a comic twist. Tales with a tingle, but also a giggle! Two yarns to chill and charm! Stories with a shiver and a smile!
The Chair from The Pickwick Papers tells the story of Tom Smart, who, sheltering from a storm for the night, gets more than he bargained forfrom a wizened and debauched piece of furniture!
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.
Like The Woman in Black but funnier, and with fewer people!
