A small company of costumed actors will read short tales of the macabre from the stage of the John Drew Backyard Theater, complimented by eerie sounds, mystifying lights, haunting projections plus some truly terrifying surprises.
The performance is approximately one hour of sheer, socially-distanced dread. Directed by the John Drew Theater Artistic Director Josh Gladstone, who previously created Guild Hall’s popular Ghouled Hall immersive events, as well as having co-produced with Kate Mueth The Haunt at Mulford Farm, which ran on Main Street for several Halloweens in recent years. In addition to Mueth and Gladstone, the evening features Vanessa Walters and Trevor Vaughn.
Bring your own beach chair or perhaps a blankie large enough to cower under. The evening is suitable for adults and children over 11 years of age. Performances are Thursday, October 29, to Saturday, October 31. Shows are at 7 and 9 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, and at 6:30, 8 and 9:30 p.m. on Saturday. Tickets are $45 per lawn circle (seats 1 or 2 members of a quarantine pod). Guild Hall is at 158 Main Street, East Hampton. Visit guildhall.org to reserve.
