GHOST QUARTET
BY DAVE MALLOY
August 21 - 23, 2025

"Musically gorgeous and truly haunting . . . " ~ Cherry and Spoon - 2022

Ghost Quartet is a song cycle about love, death and whiskey from Dave Malloy, the Tony-nominated creator of the Broadway hit “Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812.”  A camera breaks and four friends drink in an interwoven tale spanning seven centuries, with a murderous sister, a treehouse astronomer, a bear, a subway, and the ghost of Thelonious Monk.  The story draws from several fairy tales and "ghost stories", including Snow White and Rose Red, Edgar Allen Poe's Fall of the House of Usher, and One Thousand and One Nights (commonly known as Arabian Nights). There may also be some Legend of Zelda references you might recognize. Cast members present the story and music as a "concept album" and accompany themselves on a wide variety of instruments, including keyboard, ukulele, guitar, mandolin, banjo, autoharp, dulcimer and more percussion instruments than you can count.

This year, we have a new twist coming to our old favorite.  We will be inviting all cast members from all years of Ghost Quartet to a one-weekend-only reunion event!  Get ready to hear all your favorites, sung by all the players throughout the years!

"As someone who loves theater for the excitement of seeing a performance live, and sharing that experience with others Ghost Quartet is a thrill."  -Twin Cities Stages, 2019
