SEE a triple bill of Alan Ayckbourn plays at the New Vic Theatre in Newcastle-upon-Lyme in September.

The Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in association with Richard Jordan Productions Ltd, is presenting Alan Ayckbourn’s The Things That Go Bump Season, featuring Haunting Julia, Life and Beth and Snake in the Grass.

The plays, directed by Alan Ayckbourn and Richard Derrington, run from September 3 to 20, and will feature former Coronation Street actor Susie Blake, fresh from her appearance in the hit West End show Wicked.

Susie is joined by fellow television and stage actor, Liza Goddard.

Helen White of the New Vic Theatre said: “The plays’ only link is that they all deal with matters supernatural.”
