A WARNING TO THE CURIOUS:
TWO GHOST STORIES BY M R JAMES

Performed by Robert Lloyd Parry

"Storytelling at its finest . . ." The Stage

A Warning to the Curious is the final instalment in Nunkie’s M R James trilogy, following the critically acclaimed A Pleasing Terror and the prize winning Oh, Whistle . . .

Lost Hearts features one of James's most memorable black magicians, the predatory scholar Mr. Abney. It is paired here with one of James' most poignant and personal works: in A Warning to the Curious, inspired by the author's holidays in Aldeburgh, a young archaeologist is haunted and hunted by the guardian of an ancient treasure. The English seaside has never looked so menacing.

A Warning to the Curious will be touring the UK in Winter 2009 and Spring 2010.

Suitable for ages 13+
Performance lasts approx 100 minutes including interval.
