Cayman Drama Society Box office for THE WOMAN IN BLACK now open
The stage production of The Woman in Black was adapted by Stephen Mallarat from the novel by Susan Hill.
Structured as a play-within-a-play, the cast consists of two men – a young actor/teacher and an older gentleman, Kipps, who is haunted by his past. The two use little more than the power of storytelling in a disused theatre to recreate a ghostly experience that befell Kipps many years before. The actor and Kipps swap roles as the actor portrays Kipps in the series of events which have affected him so deeply, while Kipps acts out the roles of all of the other people he encountered during his journey with the Woman in Black.
It is the second longest running play in London’s West End, after “The Mousetrap” by Agatha Christie.
THE ACTORS Appearing as Kipps is Martin Tedd who has appeared in numerous CDS productions including THE KING AND I in which he played the King.
Appearing as the Actor is Adam Cockerill whose most recent role was Simon Stride in Jekyll and Hyde. Adam has also appeared in productions in The UK, Spain and Russia.
Appearing as the Woman in Black, Nicola Galvin provides a cameo performance.. One of our talented pool of student actors, Nicola has appeared in other notable CDS productions including Jekyll and Hyde and Toad of Toad Hall in which she played Toad. Because of the extraordinary nature of the play, each actor has stated that the experience of bringing THE WOMAN IN BLACK to stage has been one of the most challenging events of their stage careers.
