"Let the Right One In" is a haunting and poignant play adapted from the novel by John Ajvide Lindqvist. Set in 1980s Sweden, it follows the troubled relationship between Oskar, a lonely and bullied adolescent, and Eli, a mysterious girl who appears to be 12 but is actually a centuries-old vampire. As they form a deep bond, Oskar learns about Eli's dark past and the dangers that come with her existence. The play explores themes of loneliness, friendship, and the struggle for acceptance, intertwining elements of horror and tenderness as Oskar confronts both his own demons and the harsh realities of Eli's world. Ultimately, it’s a story about love and the lengths one will go to protect those they care about, even in the face of unimaginable horror.
