The story

Danny Robins' supernatural thriller follows Jenny and Sam through a housewarming dinner with their friends Lauren and Ben. As the conversation turns to ghosts, the four clash over belief, scepticism and what Jenny has been hearing while alone in the house, eventually agreeing to stay awake until 2:22 to find out for themselves.

In the room

A tightly contained four-person thriller that turns a dinner party into an escalating argument about the supernatural. The play mixes jump scares and mounting tension with plenty of humour, using sound, lighting and shifting relationships between the four characters to keep questioning what is actually happening.

Good fit if you like

contemporary ghost stories, psychological thrillers, tense ensemble plays, arguments between believers and sceptics, and mysteries that keep their answer hidden until late in the evening.
