Complete with all the stage thrills that have led audiences in London to shriek in fear for 30 years, this chilling performance is one that has illuminated the mainstage at the Royal George Theatre after a dark period of nearly three years and will continue to do so until its final Chicago performance on February 17. 

On a night known for loud screams, heightened anticipation and thrilling performances by some of the nation's most talented athletes, THE WOMAN IN BLACK is inviting guests to wear their favorite NFL team's jersey to receive tickets for just $39 at the door on Sunday, February 3 at 2:30 p.m. Guests are also encouraged to let their scream fill the theatre in an exclusive contest judged by the cast just following the performance. An experience surely not to miss, the production has been called "Spectacular" by the Chicago Sun-Times, and dubbed "A ghost story everyone will love," by the Chicago Tribune's Chris Jones, receiving rave reviews from critics across the board.
