Duration: Approx. 2hrs 15mins including one interval.

A gripping chiller from Britain’s favourite playwright.

This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd.

Twelve years after his daughter Julia’s death from a drug overdose, her father Joe still struggles to understand what happened to make his nineteen-year-old daughter, a musical genius, take her own life. Joe has preserved the attic bedroom where she died, but mysterious things have been happening in and around the bedroom and Joe is convinced that Julia is trying to contact him.

Joe has never fully come to terms with Julia’s death. Was it suicide? Was someone with Julia that night? Why would a girl genius want to take her own life? Joe arranges a meeting in the bedroom with a Psychic, and Julia’s former boyfriend. He is searching for answers and is hoping this meeting will help him find them. The three men meet, and the story of Julia’s life and death is gradually revealed. Will Joe find the answers he is looking for, or are some questions better left unanswered?
