The Authenticator in London

Eccentric artist Fenella Harford inherits her family's stately home, Harford Hall. When she discovers a stash of hidden diaries, she enlists a young academic, Marva, to help her authenticate them. Joined by Marva's genius but overlooked mentor, Abi, the three women dive deeper into the secrets of Harford Hall, but soon realise that what lurks in the house's depths may be more terrifying than any of them could have ever imagined.

Written by Winsome Pinnock (Leave Taking) and directed by Miranda Cromwell (Death of a Salesman) - reuniting the team behind the acclaimed Rockets and Blue Lights from 2021 - this psychological thriller has all the ingredients of a perfect gothic story: a creepy house, buried family secrets, and three unforgettable female characters playing detective. A brand new original play, it promises to fascinate and frighten audiences, while exploring a powerful story about the complexities of political legacy and family history. It will star Rakie Ayola as Abi, Sylvestra Le Touzel as Fen and Cherrelle Skeete as Marva.

If you're eager to know the secret of Harford Hall, book now to catch this gothic psychological thriller.
