The Devil’s Game (31st October – 15th November) | Blue Orange TheatreThe Plot:
"A crumbling house. A mysterious host. A game they will never forget.
When a group of strangers receive an invitation to an abandoned estate, curiosity outweighs caution. Promised one night of high-stakes entertainment, they enter willingly but the game quickly slips into something much darker. Unseen forces begin to stir. Ancient rules are broken. One by one, the players realise they are not here by chance and the odds are stacked against them. In this cursed landscape, they are not just playing the game – they are the game. Winning may be their only chance of survival because in The Devil’s Game… the house always wins".4 attendees
