About the show

John Taylor has not taken the sartorial world by storm. Nor has he lived up to the family legacy -- something his father is keen to remind him of, at every opportunity. The worst part? His father has been dead for quite some time.


The Tailor's Ghost is a Dickensian yarn set in the coal-black heart of a fever dream North. With pin-sharp wit, and a voice both hurt and human, the tailor takes us on a dark, rattling misadventure through the threatening backstreets of his tormented soul -- all the while haunted by a spirit who most certainly has his measure.


Contains strong language, and themes of grief and suicide. And mannequins.
