The Paper Cinema’s Ghost Stories

Date: Friday, Feb 1 2019 - Saturday, Feb 2 2019
Venue: The Wardrobe Theatre

A wintry show for long, dark nights: live film animation company The Paper Cinema present a bewitching new production based on ghostly tales from around the country.

Beguiling pen and ink drawings are magically brought to life in real time by two puppeteers and a projector to create a unique, animated film. They are joined by a hugely talented ensemble of multi-instrumentalists (including violin, guitar, musical saw and live looping) performing the atmospheric soundtrack live on stage.

Discover what happened when the Devil came to Cornwall, strange happenings in a bewitched house in Devon, ghostly apparitions in Shropshire and a headless rider in Savernake Forest, Wiltshire.
