A dark tale for this bleakest of seasons. A ghost story turned conjuring is the subject of this 1987 horror novella stage adaptation; it’s also the second longest-running non-musical in London’s West End theatre district. Co-stars J.C. Cutler and Nat Fuller, along with director Jon Cranney, bring this suspenseful play-within-a-play to life. $18–22. $3 discount for students, seniors and groups of 10 or more. 7:30 p.m. Wednesday–Saturday; 2 p.m. Sunday. Yellow Tree Theatre, 320 5th Ave. SE, Osseo; 763.493.8733; yellowtreetheatre.com
