In The Turn of the Screw, a young woman hired to watch over two orphans becomes convinced that they are not alone in their stately English manor. A pair of eerie strangers keep appearing on the grounds, bearing a striking resemblance to the kids’ former caretakers, who died mysteriously. As the mysteries pile up, the tale races towards a thrilling conclusion still debated today. The Tabard Theatre presents a timely staging of Henry James’s classic horror tale, just as the leaves begin to turn and a chill cuts through the air.
