Drop-in Tour with The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis—The Woman in Black
Join a guided tour of SLAM’s collection inspired by the stage adaptation of Susan Hill’s Victorian ghost story, The Woman in Black, which examines themes of supernatural apparitions, haunted locations, the persistence of grief, and the uncanny presence of what lies just beyond the veil. This tour is offered in partnership with The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis. The Woman in Black will be performed at The Rep from October 8–26, 2025.
About the program
A story that refuses to stay buried. Arthur Kipps has carried a dreadful secret for years—determined to confront his darkest memories, he hires a young actor to help bring his nightmare to life and finally put it to rest. But as the rehearsals unfold, something sinister stirs in the shadows. In this haunting stage adaptation of Susan Hill’s Victorian ghost story, The Woman in Black pulls audiences into the mystery of Eel Marsh House, where shadows stretch long, voices whisper in the wind, and an inescapable terror lurks just out of sight. Join us if you dare—because once you see her, there’s no turning back.
This tour is an excellent way to enhance your understanding of the production and reflect upon the connections between visual arts and theater. Volunteer Educators will meet attendees at the welcome desk in Sculpture Hall. Groups are limited to 15 participants per educator.
