About The Croft
In the remote Scottish Highlands two women arrive at a former Crofters Hut in the deserted village of Coillie Ghille. When suddenly the weekend getaway takes an unexpected turn. Cut off from the modern world, Laura and Suzanne find themselves drawn into the dark history of the Croft and the lives that passed before them. In this bold and haunting new play the present interweaves with the past as ancient tales surface and the terrifying truth lurking In the Croft is revealed. We know how disappointing it has been to our audiences, cast, creatives and Original Theatre to have to close our shows. We are thrilled to be able to share these brilliant shows with you digitally - our own theatre without walls. However, the Original Theatre Company operates with no Arts Council support and relies almost solely on the box office takings. With our two productions of The Habit of Art and The Croft both out on national tours, the immediate cancellations are financially devastating for us. But we are determined, wherever possible, to meet our financial commitments made to our actors, stage managers and suppliers who are all dependent on us to survive the coming months. Every penny we make through this online release will go to the people who helped make this show who now find themselves in a hugely precarious financial position .
