About Don't Look Now

This production contains flashing lights, violence, blood, partial nudity, themes of grief and child loss, and scenes of intimacy.

Grief is a trickster. It plays with time, with memory... with reality itself. Dare to look – just don’t look now.

A couple devastated by loss escape to the shadowed canals of Venice, hoping to leave their past behind – but the city has other plans.

As eerie visions blur the line between the living and the dead, an ominous presence stalks them through the labyrinthine streets. Fate is closing in – can one truly escape their destiny?

A masterclass in slow-burning dread and supernatural unease, Daphne du Maurier’s Don’t Look Now is a spine-chilling, thrilling descent into grief, guilt and the terrifying possibility that some warnings should never be ignored.
