  3. Desperate to be Seen, Horrified of Being Known: a Ghost Story


Voted best ensemble show at the 2023 Tucson Fringe Festival and awarded the title of ‘Stand Out Show’ at Hi-Desert Fringe 2023, this darkly sensual, hilariously heartbreaking, twisted new comedy thrusts two restless spirits into the afterlife - THE GHOST, a man who lived and died by his reputation, who on the surface did everything right, but had a darkness brewing underneath... and THE GHOUL, a young woman whose absurd glamor reeks of tragic desperation, a little girl who always felt small and in death found a chance to become larger than life. As they discuss love, loss, identity, and regret - and coping with the fact that neither one of them have ever really felt alive - these two deeply complicated people reach their breaking point, as they both come to realize things aren't what they seem. This exciting new one act play stars Michael Simpson as THE GHOST, playwright Vic Terry as THE GHOUL, and features a live original score on stand up bass by Verdell Smith of Soul Ablaze.
