The Woman - (20's - 30's) - English Governess

The Man (20 - 30's) - Must seamlessly play the Narrator, The Uncle, Mrs.
Grose (the housekeeper), and Miles (an 11 year old boy)

Based on the provocative Henry James' 1898 novella, Jeffrey Hatcher's
adaptation gives this psychological thriller another turn of its own. A
young governess journeys to a lonely English manor house to care for two
recently orphaned children. But she is not their first governess. Her
predecessor, Miss Jessel, drowned herself when she became pregnant by the
sadistic valet, Peter Quint, who was himself found dead soon after, under
mysterious circumstances. Now the new governess has begun to see the
specters of Quint and Jessel haunting the children, and she must find a way
to stop the fiends before it is too late. But are these ghosts real, or are
they the product of her own fevered imagination? Filled with Suspense,
horror and repressed sexuality, this piece is an actors dream!
