In later life Arnold Ridley became famous for his role as Private Godfrey in Dad’s Army, but decades earlier his classic 1920s ghostly-thriller, The Ghost Train, was first produced in 1925. It has been a firm favourite with professional and non-professional theatre companies ever since. Six passengers find themselves stranded late at night in the waiting-room of an isolated Cornish railway station. Ignoring the ghostly tales and dire warnings of the stationmaster, they decide to stay where they are until morning – with terrifying consequences. Finally, all is revealed and the details of a fiendish plot are laid bare.

Group Booking: 10 tickets available for the price of 9.
