An Inspector Calls presented by StageCoach Theatre
The story unfolds when a young girl’s tragic suicide sparks a routine inquiry into a seemingly respectable British family. As Inspector Goole questions each family member, hidden secrets and dark truths are revealed, unraveling their facade of unity and respectability. What begins as a cordial evening quickly descends into tension, distrust, and self-examination. But the biggest twist? The inspector may not be who he claims to be, and the final moments will leave you questioning everything.
