The True Story of Maria Marten and the Murder in the Red Barn

16 - 19 Oct 2024

19:30 - 21:30

Studio @ The Bradford Playhouse

The True Story of Maria Marten and the Murder in the Red Barn, written by Audrey Coldron, follows the desperate fate of Maria Marten, the victim of one of Victorian Britain's most infamous crimes.

The tale of Maria Marten and the people involved with her at the time of her death became an exaggerated and partially fabricated Victorian melodrama. Audrey Coldron's play uses thorough research of contemporary documents and eyewitness accounts to produce an authentic dramatisation of a young woman's life and demise.

Fans of true crime will love this!
