Bestselling true-crime writer John Gaunt doesn’t just research his subjects — he inhabits them. To write his books, he goes and lives in the houses where crimes were committed, believing that walls remember what people forget. However, his latest project is painfully personal: he has moved back into the house where his wife was murdered 20 years ago. Once again, immersion is his method. But this time, he is taking things to a new level. Inside the house, he stages live re-enactments of real crimes that happened there through the ages — performed by actors and witnessed by an audience. John claims it's an attempt to prove the validity of Stone Tape Theory—the idea that stone can absorb moments from the past and replay them. But his publishers are worried that John is losing his grip on reality and send an agent to shut the project down. John begs for one final hour to prove that the house still remembers.

Is he about to uncover something extraordinary — or has he finally lost his grip on reality? Step inside. Join the audience. Decide for yourself. You choose which rooms to enter, which stories to follow—and how deeply you allow the house to draw you in.

​​

*Free roam theatre is a special kind of theatre: Instead of sitting still while others present a story to you, you are the one moving through the world of the play, choosing where to go, who to follow, and which moments to linger in. As a result, you will have a unique experience unlike that of anyone else: a story pieced together through your decisions and your journey through the house. Come and make it happen!
