Don't Go Into The Cellar!Dare to face a ghoulish audience with one of the most notorious poisoners in British history—Hawley Harvey Crippen.
Step into the shadows and listen as this murderous man of medicine tells his own chilling tale. As the diabolical doctor draws you into his confession, one question haunts the night: was he truly guilty, or the victim of a terrible miscarriage of justice?
If he was innocent, whose remains lay hidden in the cellar of his Hilldrop Crescent home—and what dark fate befell his wife, Cora?
Jonathan Goodwin embodies Crippen in this gripping new production, written by Goodwin and co-directed with Gary Archer.
Jonathan Goodwin is one of the winners of The Hamilton Deane Award from The Dracula Society (former winners include Mark Gatiss and Benedict Cumberbatch).
