Just in Time for Halloween: I'll Be Back Before Midnight at the Edmonds Driftwood Players

October 16-24, 2015

Described as a “comic thriller,” audiences will be on the edge of their seats preparing to laugh … or scream. I’ll Be Back Before Midnight by Peter Colley, directed by Ted Jaquith, is sure to leave crowds solidly entertained.

The story surrounds Jan and her husband Greg who have rented an old farmhouse in the country where Jan can recover from a nervous breakdown. When the farmer they rent the house from tells stories about a terrible murder that once took place in the farmhouse and the ghost that reputedly stalks the night, Jan's imagination gets fired up. The situation gets even worse when Laura, Greg's manipulative sister arrives. Soon Jan finds herself tormented by strange sounds in the night, and visions of the vengeful ghost. Is she having another breakdown? Is someone trying to drive her mad? When she tries to defend herself from this apparition, events take an unexpected turn in a night of unimaginable suspense.

When asked to describe I’ll Be Back Before Midnight director Ted Jaquith says “this is a thriller! There may be ghosts. There may be a murderer. This play definitely sets the mood for Halloween. Audiences may be tempted to call out to the actors, "Don't go in there!"
