The Veil at the Stratford Festival’s Meighen Forum
October 23 – 31, 2026
Our darkest secrets hide just behind the veil.
From celebrated theatre-makers Keith Barker and Thomas Morgan Jones comes The Veil. Inspired by classic horror writers like Edgar Allan Poe and Shirley Jackson, this haunting new play will follow you long after you leave the theatre.
When a high-powered lawyer takes on a sinister curse, every terrible deed he’s ever committed stirs to life and lurks just beyond his sight. As reality blurs into nightmare, The Veil spirals into a pulse-quickening race against time.

The Veil is a Thought For Food production in association with The Stratford Festival and Guild Festival Theatre.

Who We Are
Thought For Food is an artist-driven collective founded by Helen Juvonen. Rooted in curiosity and collaboration, TFF brings together creators from across disciplines to devise bold, immersive performance. We create onstage worlds that are strange, funny, unsettling, and deeply human to reveal the social, political, and emotional truths hidden beneath everyday life. From biting satire to immersive dreamscapes, each project begins with a question we can’t shake and grows into an experience that unsettles, provokes, and delights.
