22. Haunted Theatres
They say every theatre has a ghost. Nat embarks on an investigation to see if this is true. Starting with the newest theatre in Biggleswade, the Bigg Theatre. Once a town hall, then a petrol station, department store and a restaurant, it seems the Bigg Theatre building has a long history associated with performance and more recently ghostly happenings. Three actors share their stories of uncanny occurrences within theatres from Brighton, to Swansea and northern towns. Why do performance spaces feel so otherworldly at times? Is there a logical reason for this or a spiritual one?
