Ghost Quartet at North Garden Theater

GHOST QUARTET is a haunted song cycle about love, death and whisky. A camera breaks and four friends drink, in four interwoven narratives spanning seven centuries: a warped fairy tale about two sisters, a treehouse astronomer and a lazy evil bear; a retelling of Poe's "The Fall of the House of Usher"; a purgatorial intermezzo about Scheherazade; and a contemporary fable about a subway murder. Murder ballads, doo-wop, jazz noise, and raucous campfire drinking songs collide in this surreal chamber musical from Dave Malloy, composer of Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812.

Anyone who works in performing arts in any capacity. Our special event on Friday is a post-show discussion . . . . what exactly was this show about anyway!? Join in to decipher the many intertwining stories.

Saturday, October 28th - Stay after the show on Saturday for a whiskey-tasting! Theatre Elision is partnering with the Twin Cities chapter of Women Who Whiskey to host this event. For those of you who know Ghost Quartet, you know that whiskey plays a role in this story. Molly Clark, Co-President of Women Who Whiskey will guide us through the tasting. Participants will sample three different whiskeys and learn a bit about them. While the show is open to all ages, this event is limited to 21+.

Tuesday, October 31st - Closing night is also Halloween! So we are having a special post-show party to celebrate. Costumes are welcome. Actually encouraged.
