Inspired by gothic horror movie classics of the 1930s, Is That a Bolt in Your Neck? is heading to Stalbridge as part of the Artsreach autumn season of performances in rural communities.
A castle looms dark and foreboding over a small mountain village. Inside, Dr Chekhov, the brilliant and reclusive scientist, works in secret. As the villagers prepare for Christmas, they become increasingly alarmed. Strange shadows can be seen at the castle windows, and every night blood curdling cries of pain can be heard.

What is Dr Chekhov doing? What hideous experiments is he perpetrating? What unimaginable horror might emerge from his laboratory? And will any of it spoil Christmas?
All will be revealed in this inventive and gripping comedy-horror.
Is That a Bolt in Your Neck? is packed full of hilarious slapstick, verbal wit and magical illusion and is at Stalbridge Hall (01963 362978) on Saturday 19 November at 7.30pm. Further information and tickets are also available online at www.artsreach.co.uk
