The Bench: A Tale from Paradise Heights From the award winning writer and director of The Haunting of Blaine Manor, written & directed by Joe O’Byrne.
‘Stephen King meets Jimmy McGovern’
It’s haunted. The bench in the park. The one by the war memorial.
Over twelve months, sixteen lives intertwine around a graffiti scarred bench. A thief, a fake clairvoyant, a homeless man, two burglars, a street sweeper, two war veterans, an artist, a widow, a drug dealer, a real clairvoyant, a loan shark, an angel, and a ghost — they have all sat here at least once this year. Love, loss, laughter, and terror all pass across the aged wood of that bench.
Some people are afraid of ghosts, but it’s the living that can do the real damage; and before the year is out one of them will be murdered here…
The Bench is haunting, enchanting, hilarious, and at times terrifying; it is a deeply human tale from the world of Paradise Heights.
Over 18’s only
