About The Ebony Frame

Listed Under Theatre Events / Nights Out Events

Part of the One Dramatic Night at St Augustine's collection

An ancient ebony frame exerts a strange attraction on its new owner. His fiancé watches his personality change as he remembers another man, long dead, and love, fire and death...

Based on horror stories by Edith Nesbit (Five Children & It, The Railway Children), The Ebony Frame returns to Edinburgh for one night only, following a sold-out run at the 2024 Edinburgh Horror Festival.

PRAISE FOR THE EBONY FRAME
"A show worth seeing again and again!" (Audience Review)
"Incredibly and delightfully intense." (Audience Review)
"Engaging and atmospheric gothic horror at its finest" (Audience Review)
