The Buntings welcome a lodger into their east end home. Outside Jack the Ripper walks abroad, cutting a swathe of death in scarlet. Slowly Mrs Bunting begins to realize that the nights the killings take place, the Lodger, Mr Sleath, walks the dark streets. Perhaps one of the most compelling and intriguing tales ever written. Part gothic thriller, part horror story, part love story, the play draws the audience into a dark and terrible gas-lit world and compels them to watch as growing death, sex and madness brings about the destruction of a marriage and begins a terrifying obsession. Out of the dark came a dream... ...out of the dream came a nightmare...
