The Woman in Black

Chicago’s premiere horror theater company begins its 2017 season with the award-winning stage play based on Susan Hill’s 1983 novel. In this gothic spine-tingler, a solicitor hires an actor to tutor him in recounting to family and friends a story that has long troubled him. It concerns events that transpired when he attended the funeral of an elderly recluse 20 years ago. There he caught sight of a woman in black, the mere mention of whom terrifies the locals, for she is a specter who haunts the neighborhood. Together the two men re-create the events of that dark and stormy night.
