‘The Turn of the Screw' performances run through Oct. 25

SUSSEX - The Tri-State Actors Theater is performing Jeffrey Hatcher’s “The Turn of the Screw,” an adaptation of Henry James’ classic ghost story, playing through Oct. 25. Ellen Lindsay plays the governess, and Jason Guy plays all other roles including the housekeeper and the young children. As in James’ original 1897 novella, “The Turn of the Screw,” tells the story of a young governess left to care for two young children at an isolated mansion in the English countryside. Shortly after her arrival, the governess begins to see visions of not one, but two malicious ghosts who seem determined to corrupt and posses the innocents in her care. Determined to save the children at all costs, she struggles to unravel the mystery of the ghosts’ motives and discover the key to destroying their power. Tickets for Thursday evenings at 8 p.m. are $20. An opening night “Meet the Artist” reception will be held on Sat., Oct. 10 following the performance. Tickets for Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 p.m. and Sunday matinees at 3 p.m. are $30, $27 for seniors 60 and over, and $20 for students.
