About the show

Benjamin Britten's spine-chilling opera The Turn of the Screw, with libretto by Myfanwy Piper after Henry James. A young governess arrives at a remote English manor to care for two orphaned children, Flora and Miles, only to discover the grounds are haunted by mysterious apparitions. As she fights to protect her wards from sinister forces, the line between sanity and madness becomes thrillingly blurred. Britten's evocative score weaves tension with hauntingly beautiful melodies and dissonant harmonies, capturing the ghostly ambiance of James's classic gothic novel. Presented in intimate proximity at Hayes Theatre Co.
