Joseph Paxton’s a bit of a local legend. He’s the reason it’s called Crystal Palace.But who was he really?

It is 1970. The sixties are dead, the seventies are waiting in the wings, and four actors and a director have retreated to a remote English manor house to rehearse a new Hammer-style horror film: The Horrors of Hell House. Cloaks, candles and the occult are the order of the day.The location is Hellenic House - known locally as Hell House - a vast, decaying stately home with a presence all of its own. As rehearsals begin, familiar tensions surface. Egos clash, insecurities fester, ambitions run wild, with the Beatles broken up and decimalisation looming, everything feels unsteady.Then Hell House begins to push back.Strange occurrences interrupt rehearsals, rituals seem a little too authentic, and the line between performance and reality starts to blur. As unease spreads through the company it becomes clear that the house is not the only thing keeping secrets, and that some games being played are far more dangerous than they appear.Packed with eccentric characters, period film and television in-jokes, genuine occult trappings and supernatural mischief, The Haunting of Hell House is a darkly comic, unsettling and affectionate homage to 1970s British horror where satire, suspense and the absurd collide.The Horrors of Hell House comes from the pen of Bridge House Theatre regular Tim Connery (Penge West, Masterclass, What A Gay Day!) and is directed by British Touring Shakespeare's Andrew Hobbs whose gothic productions (Frankenstein, Jekyll & Hyde, Dracula) have been chilling Bridge House audiences over Halloween for years.Please note: This production contains sudden loud noises, flashing lights, frightening scenes, Black Mass rituals and incantations that some audience members may find disturbing.

Stage D’Or presents ‘THE LEGACY OF WILLIAM IRELAND’, a one-man show written by acclaimed writer Tim Connery, and based on a true story.In April 1796, the play Vortigern and Rowena by William Shakespeare was, quite literally, all the rage in London. Such was the rage that the subsequent riots almost caused the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, to burn to the ground.This might have been due to the fact that the play was not by the Bard himself, but a fake written by William Henry Ireland.Featuring the incredible acting talents of Will Croft (GhostTown and The Unkillable Mike Malloy here at The Bridge House) and is brought to the stage by the team behind such Bridge House Theatre hits as MASTERCLASS, WHAT A GAY DAY!, LUCKY DOG, THE MAN IN THE SHED, THE EAGLE & THE SEAGULL, THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING FRANK, PENGE WEST and others.William Ireland is an alarming mixture of astonishing self-belief and crushing self-doubt. He is a self-proclaimed poetic genius, and an idiot according to everyone else.  His father thinks he’s an imbecile, and can never get his name right.  Women ignore him.  No publisher or patron will even read his poems.  William is desperate to have his father acknowledge him, and to have his own voice heard.  In fact, he is so desperate that he starts writing in someone else’s voice, that of William Shakespeare, proudly managing to not only “improve” on some of Shakespeare’s works by giving them a happy ending, but also dupe the world into thinking he had found a hitherto undiscovered Shakespeare play.The subsequent riot and near-destruction of the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, was, of course, not his fault.
