The Turn of the Screw: A Musical (October 2 – 26, 2025)
Written by Associate Artistic Director Matt Conner (Music) and Stephen Gregory Smith (Libretto & Lyrics), The Turn of the Screw received its world premiere at Creative Cauldron in 2015, as part of the “Bold New Works for Intimate Stages” initiative. Critics hailed this musical adaptation of the Henry James classic ghost story as “hypnotic and unnerving.” The story follows a governess who takes a position caring for two children on a remote country estate. She soon has eerie experiences and encounters, and becomes convinced that the spirits of two former employees are haunting her wards. Told through the musical genius of Conner and Smith, Creative Cauldron’s revival of this chilling psychological thriller will keep audiences on the edge of their seats!
