Directed by GARETH ARMSTRONG<\/p>\n

Music by SIMON SLATER<\/p>\n

Hauntings is a spellbinding evening of three tales of the supernatural from two of the world\u2019s greatest writers of ghost stories, E.F. Benson and M.R. James.<\/p>\n

From E.F. BENSON comes:<\/p>\n

Naboth\u2019s Vineyard \u2013 in which just desserts are meted out to an unscrupulous lawyer, & The Hanging of Alfred Wadham \u2013 in which the forces of the devil test a man of faith to his limits.<\/p>\n

From the acknowledged master of the ghost story genre, M.R. JAMES, comes:<\/p>\n

Oh, Whistle and I\u2019ll Come to You, My Lad \u2013 in which a medieval spirit strikes terrorizes an arrogant professor.<\/p>\n

With masterful storytelling from the award-winning actor Gerard Logan, Hauntings will transport you to a world of invisible, but terrifyingly present, spirits.<\/p>\n

\u201cLogan is astounding\u2026.He takes a strong script and flies it to the stars\u201d<\/p>\n

Edinburgh Festival 2016 Review \u2013 5 STARS<\/p>\n

\u201cWatching Logan work is like being privy to a wonder of nature and remains with you \u2026 A true masterpiece of solo performance\u201d<\/p>\n

The Edinburgh Guide \u2013 Edinburgh Festival 2015 \u2013 5 STARS<\/p>\n

Gerard Logan won The Stage \u201cBest Solo Performer of the 2011 Edinburgh Festival Award\u201d for his acclaimed performance in Gareth Armstrong\u2019s production of Shakespeare\u2019s The Rape of Lucrece. He won the \u201cBest Actor\u201d award at the 2014 Buxton Fringe Festival and was nominated for the Michael MacLiammoir Award for \u201cBest Male Performance\u201d at the 2016 International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival for his performance in Wilde Without the Boy.<\/p>\n

Gareth Armstrong has developed and directed many successful solo shows, including his own award-winning \u201cShylock\u201d.<\/p>\n

Hauntings is also underscored by a beautiful, original and specially commissioned score by the award-winning RSC composer, Simon Slater.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":11667,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"event_category":[],"tc_location":[937],"class_list":["post-11666","events","type-events","status-publish","hentry","tc_location-blackwood"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nHauntings at Blackwood Miners' Institute | Visit Caerphilly<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.visitcaerphilly.com\/en\/events\/hauntings-at-blackwood-miners-institute\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Hauntings at Blackwood Miners' Institute | Visit Caerphilly\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Grab your tickets HERE!
