Dust on the mantle. The basement? Off-limits.

Returning home to settle their dying grandmother's estate, Sloane spirals into a story they swore they'd never tell. Their husband unearths malevolent family secrets, and their best friend discovers there's more to the creaky old house than meets the eye. The haunted house transforms into tragicomic depravity. A bisexual spin on the golden age of horror, this propulsive and spine-tingling new drama dares you to think twice about what may be lurking underneath your home that you'd rather stay buried. 

"Horror fans know the real deal when we see it, and Riley Elton McCarthy's tightly wound exploration of haunting grief is a refreshing case in point." THE SCOTSMAN

 

After a haunting smash-hit run at Edinburgh Fringe and three limited engagements in New York, IVORIES returns for a second poltergeist in its London premiere. Uniting critically acclaimed director Georgie Rankcom ("The Frogs", "How to Succeed in Business (Without Really Trying!)" at Southwark Playhouse) and subversive breakout playwright Riley Elton McCarthy ("The Lesbian Play" at The Triad Theater, recommended by TimeOut & New York Times) for a bone-chilling evening of horror.  Riley Elton McCarthy returns to star as Sloane for its first major London production. 

 

"Ivories is a unique and intriguing tragicomedy-thriller hybrid, with a fantastic team that has clearly put so much love and care into the production." ★★★★★ Lost in Theatreland

 

"This show brings horror, chiller with some touches of humour, but most of all what a great theatre show that we loved." ★★★★★ MoreishTV

 

"A playwright to keep an eye on for SURE! Ivories has it all: tears, trauma, sexual tension, ghosts, laughs & the understanding that nothing (and no one) is ever as they appear to me. The cast is stunning. The script is stunning." ★★★★★ Hailey Green
