THE DEMON RETURNS: The Haunting of Blaine Manor - Buxton Festival Fringe 2018

6/15/2018

We are absolutely delighted to be part of the Fabulous Buxton Festival Fringe. We will be performing at the Arts Centre Studio, part of the Buxton Opera House complex, the opera house being a classic Frank Matcham building. Playing in a building within the grounds and situated behind the Opera House who knows what ghosts our ghosts might disturb there?

Come and see this show that reviewers love and that audiences are coming to watch more than once, it's a twisty turny chiller thriller. Some of the reviews are below, along with some stunning imagery - booking details and more information at the links. Show dates and times are in the poster above.

TRAILER:

The Fabulous Imagery of Darren McGinn

Darren designed the trailer (with the wonderful music and sound effects of Justin Wetherill) and has produced some stunning imagery to support the shows, just some of his work is below in these wonderful portraits of the characters.

This is one of the best haunted house stories you will ever see on stage, the reviews tell their story. Bring your friends, workmates, make it a night out - it's a story that will stay with you...we look forward to meeting you...Joe x

FEELING PUNCHY - I'm Frank Morgan: RewiRED

6/14/2018

It's been a couple of weeks since my last performance (on that run) as Frank Morgan. I've had further time to reflect on what I did with him. The revival/remodel/reincarnation was more than worth the gamble as most of you who saw it will agree.

Audience reaction, reviews etc mean that he won't be put back in his cage for long. I'm going to be doing the show wherever I can nation wide, should be cheap enough with it being a one man show, travel light. I'd like to put it on somewhere every couple of months or so in a build up to take the show to Edinburgh next year as an introduction of Tales from Paradise Heights to new audiences. He's already booked in for The Met in Bury for January but he may be back as early as August if I have my way, watch this space. A BIG THANKS to the audiences who have just been beyond amazing, to the reviewers that give shows legs, to Justin Wetherill (music and sound design) to Darren McGinn (Posters) and to Karen McBride and Shay Rowan (Photography) Some more of Shay's shots can be seen above and below, over the coming weeks I will post up galleries of Karen and Shay's work.

So yes, I'm celebrating, and absolutely delighted that I dusted off that old Frank Morgan script, tore it apart and created a new Monster for today - Frank(enstein) Morgan, rose from the slab and pretty much smashed his way out of the laboratory...it's alive, IT'S ALIVE!

REVIEWS:

So that's Frank for now...and next it's back to more haunting times as The Haunting of Blaine Manor comes to Buxton Festival Fringe in July, can't wait. See you out there...Joe x
