🎭 The House on the Cliff at The Little Theatre in Dunstable


Time: 19:45

🎭 Written by George Batson, and Directed by Philip Davis, the play is described as a Mystery Thriller, beginning with a sudden, violent murder and ending with a chilling, surprising climax.

From a TV play by George Barton and Donn Harmon, The House On The Cliff will be performed at The Little Theatre, Dunstable from 17th to 25th January 2025, including a Saturday Matinee on the first weekend.

DATES & TIMES

👻 DETAILS
The house in question is a rambling old structure of ancient vintage, built high on a cliff overlooking the English Channel. Years ago a boat sank in a storm near the foot of the cliff and it is said that the ghosts of the drowned passengers haunt the area.

The houses occupants include a young, lovely heiress, Ellen Clayton, who is currently confined to a wheelchair; Karen her coolly beautiful stepmother; and Jenny an austere housekeeper.

The Nurse Pepper arrives, a cheerful, curious person desirous of putting things in order. And there’s the substitute doctor, Corey Phillips who believes Ellen can walk again and soon. It all begins with a sudden, violent murder and ends with a chilling, surprising climax.

INSIDE THE LITTLE THEATRE
🥂 The Bar: Always a good place to enjoy a pre performance or interval drink. The bar is manned by our volunteers and is a social space to enjoy.
😌 The Dymond Room: A quieter room that is an extension to our bar area.
