Based on the 1976 novel "A Watcher in the Woods" by Florence Engel Randall,

Watcher in the Woods: A New Musical is a supernatural tale of remembrance and reconnection, 

a universal reminder that we must come together to carry on.

 

Summer. 1976.

It’s been nearly a year, and Jan is still haunted by the tragic loss of her father.

Now, her mother has moved Jan, and her little sister, into a creepy old house in the middle of nowhere.

Here, surrounded by dark woods, the haunting is real.

Forces she cannot see, and feelings that are not hers,

compel Jan to solve a fifty year old local mystery.

 

Someone, or something, in the woods wants Jan to know the truth.

 

The only way out of the woods ... is through.
