THE GHOST TRAIN

Saturday 2nd - Saturday 16th April 2011

programme
 
   

 

   

"The Ghost Train" tells the story of a group of travelers who find themselves marooned at a lonely station deep in Cornwall.  Set in the 1920’s this play has all the hallmarks of theatre at its best. 

The large cast, including Cathy Morris, Katherine Whaley, Maree Spurdle, Kristen Devine, Valda Hinz, John Butler, Kevin Koch, James Goodwin, Francis Cook, Ross Jordan and Keith Carey-Smith portray a myriad of characters all thrown together because of the prank of one man.  One couple would rather have their domestic differences aired in private, the newly-married young couple would rather spend the first night of their honeymoon in private, and the station master wants to keep private what really goes on at the station. But on this dark and stormy night nothing is as it seems and even though the station master warns them of a "ghost train" they decide to stay in the waiting room so that they can catch the first morning train. A young woman in evening dress suddenly turns up and the station master is discovered - dead!
