Join us for our yearly retelling of Oscar Wilde’s The Canterville Ghost, brought to theatrical life by Deanna Kinzie and Anne Raugh.
Created for families, couples, loners, young audiences, old audiences and everyone in between, this exciting, comic and poignant ‘hylo-idealistic romance’ has it all.
First performed by ESP in 2022, this classic ghost story returns for another generation. Directed by Christine Mosere, The Canterville Ghost bursts with imagination, fun and storytelling creativity, mixing laugh-out-loud adventure with touching reflection on the human condition.
‘Perhaps I've been too dogmatic in my denial of the existence of ghosts.’
