Watson's Mystery Café presents
THE WOMAN IN BLACK
by Stephen Malatratt based on the novel by Susan Hill
The West End’s (England) second longest running play after The Mousetrap, it has also become part of the UK school curriculum for drama, and was propelled further into the mainstream thanks to the 2012 film adaptation starring Daniel Radcliffe.
The story follows Arthur Kipps, a young lawyer tasked with sorting through the papers of a recently deceased client, Mrs. Alice Drablow, in a far-flung location in the north of England. At her funeral he encounters the woman in black, whose very mention spreads fear throughout the locals. Alone, he must go to the isolated Eel Marsh House to manage Mrs Drablow’s estate. Terrorized by every new sighting of the frightful woman, he discovers more about her tragic past and the dire consequences she causes.
In this ingenious stage adaptation, Arthur Kipps is first introduced as an older gentleman who has sought the help of an actor to tell the ghastly story that has been plaguing him since he was a young man.
“The Woman in Black” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.
