What We're Doing
Morgan Lloyd Malcolm, Sampira & Abi Zakarian present: Terrifying Women, an unforgettable night of horror and suspense.
Featuring a series of short, original works performed by an electric ensemble of actors, Terrifying Women is an introduction to the often-overlooked genre of horror in theatre. From ghostly tales to vengeful monsters, ancient horrors to modern day villains, these six short plays will spook, scare, shock and stimulate you. Running from Oct 28th - 30th at The Golden Goose Theatre, Terrifying Women is guaranteed to freak you out.
Why We're Doing It
Sharing a love of all things horror, friends Morgan, Sampira and Abi noticed that there was virtually no horror staged in theatre. Horror is often wrongly regarded as a less complex genre, looked down on as low-brow and ignored by theatres as worthy of commissioning or programming, so the three of them resolved to create a night that showcased their horror-based work and demonstrated how this most maligned of genres is deserving of more attention on stage. This production will be the first step in the formation of a new theatre company that will focus on giving horror a greater space within UK Theatre.
Why We Need Your Donation
Your donation will go towards a fee for all the artists involved, as well as making a Pay What You Can livestreamed performance available to ensure the production is as accessible as possible.
We're hoping this is the first step in a resurgence of UK horror in theatre created by women and hope you'll join us on this exciting (and horrifying) journey.
