Review: GHOSTS, starring Victoria Smurfit and Callum Scott Howells
by Cindy Marcolina - April 17, 2025
Victoria Smurfit and Callum Scott Howells are the tragic mother-son duo in an exciting, tense, suspenseful adaptation.

Rachel O’Riordan’s production is a masterclass in distilling tension and concentrating it without frills or games. It’s an emotionally challenging experience, pure theatre.
