A Ghost of a Smile

TWO DICKENS GHOST STORIES WITH A COMIC TWIST

Adapted and directed by Gavin Robertson and performed by Nicholas Collett

From the team who brought you ‘Done To Death By Jove!’ and “Is That A Whip In Your Hand?”

Two of Charles Dickens’ creepy tales – with a comic twist. Tales with a tingle, but also a giggle! Two yarns to chill and charm! A traveller encounters a ghostly chair, and in a deserted Edinburgh carriageworks, a tipsy reveller is spirited away by…well…spirits!
Like “The Woman in Black” – but funnier, with fewer people!

Gavin and Nicholas have toured all over the UK as well as recent tours to USA and Australia

“The ghost of a smile? More like an ear-to-ear grin. Come for the writing. Stay for the performance. Get your frock coats on and go see this! ‘GetYourCoatsOn’ (Edinburgh Fringe)
