Award winning supernatural thriller 2:22 – A Ghost Story is back in the West End for a strictly limited 10-week season at the Gielgud Theatre.

The show stars much-loved presenter Stacey Dooley, making her West End debut as Jenny, with James Buckley (The Inbetweeners) as Ben, Donna Air (The Split) as Lauren, and Joe McFadden (Holby City) as Sam.

Written by Danny Robins, creator of the hit BBC podcast The Battersea Poltergeist, and directed by Matthew Dunster, 2:22 A Ghost Story is an adrenaline-fuelled night where secrets emerge and ghosts may or may not appear. What do you believe? And do you dare discover the truth? This brilliantly funny and intriguing play is a must-see show.

2:22 – A Ghost Story is booking from 25 May 2024 to 4 August 2024 at the Gielgud Theatre.

Jenny believes her new home is haunted, but her husband Sam isn’t having any of it. They argue with their first dinner guests, old friend Lauren and new partner Ben. Can the dead really walk again? Belief and scepticism clash, but something feels strange and frightening, and that something is getting closer, so they’re going to stay up… until 2:22… and then they’ll know.
