James Bye said: “I’m over the moon to be joining 2:22 – A Ghost Story as Sam. It’s such a clever, brilliantly written show, and I can’t wait to get started.”
Written by ‘Uncanny' creator Danny Robins, ‘2:22 – A Ghost Story' has become a major West End success, running for seven seasons and touring internationally. The production has now been seen by more than 1.1 million people across 17 countries.
