Corpse is a one-woman show blending comedy, campfire-style storytelling and horror, based on a true story of a haunting experienced by writer and performer Kirsty Mann. A young couple buy their dream home at a suspiciously low price, only for strange occurrences to escalate after they move in. The show won Best Theatre at Adelaide Fringe 2026 and arrives at Edinburgh Fringe for its fully-realised world premiere season. Mann brings a unique perspective as a doctor to this genre-bending account of the supernatural.
