The Poltergeist
A darkly comic play from award-winner Philip Ridley
Starting Monday 22 September 2025
At 15, Sasha was called an art world prodigy. Celebrities wanted to buy his paintings. His first exhibition was going to make him a superstar.
But now he lives in a run-down flat, with his out-of-work boyfriend, and no one’s even heard of him…What went wrong?
An exhilarating and deeply moving one-man show about art, family, memory, and being haunted by the life we never lived.
