Kings Heath set to be grabbed by the ghouls

Dont go into the cellar

Don't go into the cellar

Birmingham-based Theatre Company “Don’t Go Into The Cellar!” is bringing a series of gripping Victorian capers to King’s Heath over the summer.

Combining the gory excesses of Hammer Horror with the Music Hall feel of The Good Old Days, “Ghouls Aloud” will bring you chills, chuckles and tunes! Expect to encounter Sweeney Todd, Jack the Ripper, Countess Dracula, Rasputin the Mad Monk and many other creepy coves in this original and enjoyable variety show with added bite! These shows are to be performed at The Station Pub, High Street.

Meantime, the company’s “Gothicana” shows, set to take The Kitchen Garden Café by storm, are based around more traditional story-telling techniques, and feature adaptations of Poe, Bram Stoker, Arthur Conan Doyle and other masters of mayhem.

Each production of both formats will be unique – no two line-ups are ever the same – and it this fresh and innovative approach that keeps the shows fresh and the audiences guessing!

Company Director Rachel Green has been delighted with the enthusiastic reception the productions have received. She says, “We specialise in bringing the classics of the Victorian horror genre to life, with striking adaptations that contain laughs and chills in equal measure. We are happy to bring these performances to King’s Heath, which has such a great reputation for live comedy and theatre.”
