A last-minute replacement actress, Julia, finds herself thrust into a dress rehearsal of a stage production of Henry James’ classic Victorian ghost story, set in 1890. The story is reimagined in present-day Wellington, within the unsettling atmosphere of a theatre. As Julia takes on the role and performs to an empty auditorium late one night, the lines between reality and fiction blur. She begins to question whether the eerie events she portrays are merely part of the play, or if the theatre itself is genuinely haunted, echoing the story's original chilling narrative.
