Two startling and surprising plays by award-winning writer Tim Foley: one to make you laugh, and one to make you scream…

It Walks Around The House At Night is a haunted house story for our times. When an out-of-work actor takes a job playing a ghost at an old country manor, he expects a few cheap scares but soon uncovers something far more frightening. Filled with haunting tricks, chilling twists and a generous dose of dark humour, the play was directed by Neil Bettles in a production by ThickSkin, which toured the UK in 2026.

Jurassic is a comedy about disinformation and dinosaurs, in which a late-night screening of a certain Spielberg classic triggers carnage on a university campus. It premiered at Soho Theatre, London, in 2025, produced by Ransack.

'A masterclass in atmospheric storytelling… brilliant writing… It Walks Around The House At Night should be shown on theatre stages all over the UK'

'[Jurassic is] a daft, furious comedy of dinosaurs and destruction... sharp and silly... absurdly funny... Foley's writing is a dotty delight and a searing indictment of the way our world is going'

'Brilliantly ridiculous... Jurassic offers a hilariously unhinged academic turf war where dinosaurs, egos, and alternative facts collide... Foley's writing is slick, tight, unexpectedly layered and tonally complex in its satire... hilarious, unsettling, and sharply contemporary'
