THE CROFT
A Thriller by Ali Milles
Directed by Philip Franks
The past won’t be silenced.
Based on a true highland story. In the remote Scottish Highlands two women arrive at a former Crofters Hut in the deserted village of Coillie Ghille. When suddenly the weekend getaway takes an unexpected turn. Cut off from the modern world, Laura and Suzanne find themselves drawn into the dark history of the Croft and the lives that passed before them.
In this bold and haunting play the present interweaves with the past as ancient tales surface and the terrifying truth lurking in the Croft is revealed.
Starring Liza Goddard, one of the UK's favourite actresses, most recently seen in Noises Off and known for her roles in Doctor Who and Bergerac and Caroline Harker (A Touch of Frost). Directed by award-winning director Philip Franks (Murder in the Dark, Agatha Christie’s The Mirror Crack’d) and produced by Original Theatre (Birdsong, Murder in the Dark, Agatha Christie’s The Mirror Crack’d), The Croft will be setting pulses racing this Spring.
