This June sees the return of spooky favourite Tales from Haunted Liverpool. The full cast for the new adaptations of Slemen’s scary tales have now been unveiled.
Mother and daughter acting team Lynn Francis and Jamie Hampson have been confirmed amongst the cast performing at the sell-out series of the dramatic ghostly tales.
Tales from Haunted Liverpool (volumes 5-6) sees the return of production favourite Brian Dodd and from last November's production, Stephen Fletcher.
Following the sell-out November 2009 and March 2010 runs, the promoters claim the events are rapidly becoming Liverpool’s most sought-after theatre experience.
Bringing to life Tom Slemen’s famous ‘Haunted Liverpool’ books volumes 5 and 6, the shows at St George's Hall will be an atmospheric re-telling of the chilling tales, and the third in this popular series of performances.
Tales from Haunted Liverpool is performed by some of Liverpool’s best-loved and multi-talented performers who take you on a journey into Liverpool's dark supernatural world bringing the characters of past and present to life.
The four actors cleverly deliver readings, performance, musical interludes and haunting melodies utilising every inch of the stunning concert room, making this a unique theatrical experience that leaves you wanting more.
Tales from Haunted Liverpool is adapted and directed by Jen Heyes who has built up an extensive portfolio in theatre production and direction.
Director Jen Heyes said “A large number of our audiences are obviously Slemen fans but you can equally enjoy them if you are not.
"Myself and the cast realise that we have a huge responsibility when telling these tales to our audiences as they have already been acted out again and again within people’s imaginations”.
Tom Slemen has written 9 books of ‘Haunted Liverpool’ 2 books of ‘Haunted Wirral’ and the Haunted City book, all of which contains many spine tingling tales of Liverpool past and present, these books have regularly been number 1 in the Liverpool bestselling book charts.
