As soon as we entered the theatre, we all felt as if something truly chilling was about to happen.

When the woman in black entered from behind, the sound swelled from the speakers, making us all feel as if we were actually experiencing a supernatural encounter. Throughout the show the woman in black constantly appeared out of nowhere, keeping us all tense and unsure of where the plot was going.

Overall the production was a spine tingling experience, the likes of which none of us had ever encountered before, and it’s no wonder that the play has been running in the West End for over 30 years.
