Notes
○ The Turn Of The Screw was advertised as the much anticipated follow-up to the theatre’s production of The Woman In Black from Christmas 1987. Although Stephen Mallatratt adapted both books for the stage, The Turn Of The Screw was considerably less successful than The Woman In Black.
○ The Turn Of The Screw was an adaptation of Henry James' novel by Stephen Mallatratt.
