M.R James' Whistle and I'll Come to You
The M.R. James classic ghostly tale is bought to life this Christmas at Greyfriars.
- Booking essential
‘He saw quite clearly for a moment a vision of a wide, dark expanse at night, with a fresh wind blowing, and in the midst a lonely figure.’
‘Whistle and I’ll Come to You’ tells the tale of a young professor who, whilst walking in an English coastal village, stumbles upon a strange whistle. When blown, an unexpected chain of events is set in motion...
This year, Toby Burchell takes us through a chilling tale from the finest writer of the ghost story genre, M.R. James. Burchell's one man performance was a sell out success in 2023 at Malvern Theatres and is now going on tour.
Originally narrated by James himself as an entertainment for friends, this is the perfect traditional ghost story.
The performance will last 1 hour, with no interval. Refreshments will be available before the show starts.
