The smash hit, supernatural thriller 2:22 – A Ghost Story will return to Mayflower Theatre this autumn, from Monday 10 to Saturday 15 November 2025.
What do you believe? And do you dare discover the truth?
“THERE’S SOMETHING IN OUR HOUSE. I HEAR IT EVERY NIGHT, AT THE SAME TIME.”
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.
2:22 – A Ghost Story’s phenomenal success includes three years in the West End over seven seasons. There have been twelve replica productions worldwide and the show has been seen by over 1 million people in seventeen different countries.
The production began its life in summer 2021 at the Noel Coward Theatre, starring Lily Allen, Julia Chan, Hadley Fraser and Jake Wood, and where it won the WhatsOnStage award for Best Play.
It features Stacey Dooley as Jenny, Kevin Clifton as Sam, Shvorne Marks in the role of Lauren, and Grant Kilburn as Ben.
2:22 is written by award-winning writer Danny Robins, creator of the hit BBC podcast and TV series Uncanny, and is directed by Matthew Dunster; it’s an adrenaline-filled night where secrets emerge and ghosts may or may not appear…
“I was blown away by our fantastically successful UK tour in 2023-24 plus another West End season this year,” says Danny. “I keep pinching myself to see the huge appetite for my play seems to be ongoing.
Hopefully this new tour will see a combination of return and first time visits from audiences, bringing 2:22 – A Ghost Story to new people, as well as those who are hungry for more. I am genuinely humbled by how well the production continues to be received and am very excited (as you may be) to reveal our cast in due course. If you’d like to speculate on that, do message us @222aghoststory!!”
