After our sell-out run at Edinburgh Horror Festival 2024, it was a delight to reprise 'The Ebony Frame' for Grimfest 2025! Marking my off west-end debut (as well as my first time in London!), returning to our gothic romantic horror with the full team meant so much to me.

Our final performance as part of Erstwhile Media's 'A Dramatic Night' ensured we finished on a high. Playing alongside two other stellar shows, it was the perfect way to conclude the 'Edith Nesbit's Ghost Stories' tour!

'[...] Finlay Allan was completely run off his feet, playing four characters ranging from disgruntled mother to creepy gravedigger.'

'In all, The Ebony Frame was a very enjoyable watch. The production achieved exactly what it set out to do: with a strong cast and an even stronger vision, it translated excellently from page to stage, aligning itself tonally with the original story while also bringing something new and interesting to the table.'
