About
This is a horror/thriller play about 3 friends who have gone camping. They decide to tell some scary stories around the campfire.
According to local lore, the drummer boy was a young soldier serving during the Napoleonic Wars.
He was tasked with delivering a substantial sum of money or a secret message through the complex warren of tunnels but he was ambushed by assailants who murdered and decapitated him to steal the money.
Will a couple who lose their tour group and get lost in the old wartime tunnels witness anything? Will they find their way out before the drummer boy finds them…
In 1941, at the age of 23, Rosemary Kennedy—the eldest sister of President John F. Kennedy—was subjected to a botched prefrontal lobotomy authorized by her father, Joseph P. Kennedy.
Today, they need to tear down the derelict asylum building that once kept her prisoner. But is the foreman alone in her inspections or is Rosemary still haunting the corridors? Is she still incapacitated or does she want revenge…
Left alone with her baby after her husband is called into a late-night work shift, Lara begins to experience a series of unsettling, escalating disturbances in her home. Is there anyone really there or is it all in her head from isolation vs. paranoia? Or if there is someone there… who is it and what do they want?!
In-between the telling of these stories we revisit the campsite to the three friends.
At least everything surrounding them in real life is calm and comfortable… right?!
To find out more, you’ll just have to come along… 😉
