You are about to enter another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land of imagination. Next stop, the Twilight Zone…

The Twilight Zone has been adapted for the stage by Anne Washburn (Shipwreck, Mr. Burns) and is directed by the multi award-winning director (winner of seven Olivier Awards), Richard Jones. It is formed of a mixture of morality tales, fables and fantasy.

The Twilight Zone is based on the television programme that ran on American network CBS from 1959 to 1964, winning three Emmy Awards during its 156-episode run.  A new version of the TV show to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the original programme has recently gone into production.

The Twilight Zone will play at the Ambassadors Theatre from the 4th March until the 1st June.
