29th October - 2nd November 2024 

​

Somewhere in rural Northumberland there’s a village called Mould-on-the-Wall. Somewhere in this village you’ll find a street that convicts once walked down as they made their way to their deaths. Today it’s a street like any other, and like any other street… Doomgate has its secrets.

 

Join us as we jump house to house and pull back the curtain to shed light on the darkness within, with tales that explore what happens when you let an over-eager door-to-door salesman into your home, the true cost of giving a friend your kidney and why a middle-aged man can’t leave his train set alone… 

​

That’s not to mention all of that business going on at number twelve… 


This anthology of darkly comic plays, brought to you by Carpet Time Productions (Hannah Sowerby, Jamie McLeish and Lynne Patrick), consists of funny and sometimes horrific twist-in-the-tale stories that will have you right on the edge of your seat. 

​

We will visit eight houses on the street, all with very different stories to tell, in this voyeuristic look at what goes on behind closed doors in ‘ordinary’ houses; it will be both thrilling and intimate. It’s not for the faint hearted, but if you love a bit of dark comedy, then these tales of the uninvited will be right up your street (pun very much intended). 

​

So, come on in and join us at Laurels this Halloween as we serve up this dark treat for you. The residents of Doomgate are waiting for you…
