Haunted Theatres

Does every theatre have a ghost? Nat investigates.

They say every theatre has a ghost. Nat embarks on an investigation to see if this is true., starting with the newest theatre in Biggleswade, the Bigg Theatre. Once a town hall, then a petrol station, department store and a restaurant, it seems the Bigg Theatre building has a long history associated with performance and more recently ghostly happenings.

Three actors share their stories of uncanny occurrences within theatres from Brighton, to Swansea and northern towns.

Danny Robins makes a brief return to the show, to share some of his thoughts on why so many theatre's have ghosts associated with them.

Why do performance spaces feel so otherworldly at times? Is there a logical reason for this or a spiritual one?

Guests on this episode include:

Anna Stolli from the Bigg Theatre.

Owen Staton from Time Between Times Story Telling Podcast.

Danny Robins writer and presenter of smash hit podcasts Uncanny, The Witch Farm and The Battersea Poltergeist.
