A three day workshop from the South London Theatre:

Ages:  10 plus
Dates: 19 to 21 December 2022 
Times: 10am to 4pm
Cost: £75

The young actors workshop, led by Siobhan Campbell, will culminate in a performance on Wednesday 21 December at 3:00pm:

"We will be devising and performing a selection of Ghost Stories based on the Valancourt Victorian Christmas Ghost Stories; a collection of ghost stories, culled from rare 19th-century periodicals
Most of us know of A Christmas Carol, but there are plenty of spookier Victorian tales.During the Victorian era, it became traditional for publishers of newspapers and magazines to print ghost stories during the Christmas season for chilling winter reading by the fireside or candlelight.
With 27 tales to explore and choose from including some from well-known authors and others anonymous we will retell a selection of these lesser-known stories with movement, music, and costume. What better setting for such a retelling than a Victorian Fire Station and just in time for the Festive season!"
