Winter. Bare trees. Fog. A chill breeze. It’s the perfect time of year to cozy up and tell a good story about things that might be there, in the dark. In the night. And that’s just what these three psychological chillers do: explore that which isn’t there…unless it is. Winner of the Sam Bass One-Act Contest in Austin, "Whitechapel" takes us to a London flat that may or may not be haunted by the grandfather of serial killers, Jack the Ripper. A World Premiere written especially for The Bluestockings, "Wet Paint" invites us into a house that may or may not have uninvited guests, and a rainy night’s séance that may or may not be harmless fun. The evening wraps up with "The Body," a visit with a grieving coroner who may or may not be a little too in touch with one of his “patients.” The Body was featured in The Nature of Fear and Its Effects, produced by Jobsite Theatre at the Tampa Performing Arts Center.
