Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse Theatres and The Coach House
Featuring new writing by Conway McDermott & RJ Lloyd

We are looking for our main protagonist to feature in a new horror storytelling short, produced digitally, in a collaboration with Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse theatres and local Liverpool collective, The Coach House.

This Halloween, the theatres will be releasing a new piece of digital work that will have audiences hiding behind their sofas at home, it’ll be tense, it’ll be funny & it will be very Liverpool.

We’re excited to continue our journey in producing digital works, this project represents a milestone event for the theatres, as we aim to broaden how we tell stories to reach new audiences within our communities.
