Sarah Stribley Productions presents the 20th Anniversary of Philip Ridley's dark comedy Ghost from a Perfect Place, directed by Russell Bolam, at the Arcola Theatre, in Dalston, north-east London, with previews beginning on 11 Sep 2014, an opening night on 15 Sep and a limited run through to 11 Oct 2014.

The Arcola production comes 20 years after Philip Ridley's premiere at the Hampstead Theatre.

Synopsis: 'Back in the swinging sixties, Travis Flood led a gang that terrorised East London. Now, after an absence of many years, he returns to find his old turf in the clutches of a new kind of gang - with a new kind of leader. Rio, ruler of a vicious gang of girls, instantly captivates Travis with her haunting beauty. But when their paths cross, a shocking story begins to emerge - one that shatters both their distorted memories.'

The creative team behind Ghost from a Perfect Place features scenic design by Anthony Lamble, lighting by Malcolm Rippeth and sound design by Richard Hammarton.
