The Turn of the Screw @ Bremerton Community Theatre (Bremerton)

This is a dark, rich, ghost story; or is it a story about unhinged madness? Each of us must decide what is real and what is not. Is it a battle between good and evil, or of right and wrong?

A governess takes a position in a lonely country estate where she is given full charge of Miles and Flora, with strict instructions to never reach out to her employer about matters concerning the children. As her relationship with the housekeeper, Mrs. Grose, and the children develops, she soon believes they are keeping secrets from her. Her suspicions grow when the ghosts of the former valet and governess begin appearing around the grounds but Mrs. Grose and the children deny seeing the figures. As the apparitions take more and more interest in the children, the governess begins to fear for her charges lives and souls.

Written by Douglas Jones, based on the novella by Henry James. Directed by Kristi Ann Jacobson.
