Details

An actor arrives late at a sound studio for a last-minute job that he is yet to see the script for: an audiobook recording of a particularly chilling ghost story. But as the evening progresses, the horrors start to escape the pages of the story, and haunt the studio itself...

A Ghost In Your Ear is the new play from Jamie Armitage, the writer/director of 2024 sell-out hit An Interrogation. Made in collaboration with Ben and Max Ringham (ANNA, National Theatre and Blindness, Donmar Warehouse). 

Using binaural sound technology, the audience wears headphones so they are immersed in the terrifying auditory world of the show.

Health warning: this play is intentionally looking to scare its audience. If you are of a nervous disposition, then caution is advised…


Suggested age guidance 14+
