poltergeist theatre presents thark by ben travers
"I'm afraid we've made a bit of a mess"
London, 1927. Things are not going well for Hector Benbow. His secret liason with a shop girl is scuppered by his wife’s early arrival home. What’s more, there are reports that Thark – the family home – is haunted. Hector, his plucky young nephew Ronny, and the rest of the family set out to the house to prove the rumours wrong. Will Thark promise to live up to its spine-chilling reputation…? Gloriously funny and sublimely silly, Poltergeist Theatre’s latest production is a farce you won’t want to miss!
THARK by Ben Travers, adapted by Clive Francis
