"Dead On Cue" by Mark Carey

27th June 2026

Sarah Thorne Theatre

Thriller written & performed by Mark Carey at the Sarah Thorne Theatre in Broadstairs

Start time: 7.30pm

Mark Carey (Into The Breach and What's Wrong with Benny Hill) has teamed up with Giles Shenton (Old Herbaceous, Three Men in a Boat, and Much Ado About Falstaff) to bring you a spooky thriller set in the same dressing room, during the same play, at the same theatre, but 60 years apart.

During both time periods the theatre is hosting a performance of Hamlet where "time is out of joint" and “something is rotten”….

What is the unearthly link between the two productions?

How can the same things be happening to different people 60 years apart?

What secrets have been buried in the old dressing room under the stage?

Why are the actors fascinated by the old dressing room mirror?

Just don't look into it......you might not like what you see!

You’ll leave believing that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

“Mark Carey's ‘Dead on Cue’ is a brilliantly crafted thriller that combines elements of suspense, horror, and drama. Its unique premise, compelling narrative, and outstanding performance make it a must-see for anyone who enjoys a good mystery with a supernatural twist.” Sherborne Studio Theatre Review
