Upper School Play

This story of unspeakable horror, adapted from Henry James' novella The Turn of the Screw, begins when a young governess arrives at an English estate to oversee two precocious, orphaned youngsters. Along with a motherly cook, these four aren't alone - they're haunted by fears and phantoms and by ghastly shadows. The adults are terrified, but the children are possessed by the spirits and welcome their visitations. The governess learns the spirits are those of the former caretaker and governess, both perverse, who corrupted the souls of the children. Full of fear and terror, she learns that the two are now inseparable, the evil and the innocents.
