GHOST THE MUSICAL Comes to Old Log Theatre

By:

The dazzling new musical, GHOST the Musical is based on the phenomenal Oscar winning Paramount Pictures film written by Bruce Joel Rubin and starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg, makes its regional premiere at the Old Log Theatre. Previews begin Friday, June 2 and opens Saturday, June 10.

A timeless fantasy about the power of love in which Sam is trapped as a ghost between this world and the next trying to communicate with girlfriend Molly through a phony psychic, in the hope of saving her from his murderer.

A rollercoaster ride of romance, drama and excitement, Bruce Joel Rubin adapts his Oscar-winning screenplay for the stage. GHOST the Musical features stunning new music and lyrics by Grammy Award-winning legends Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) and Glen Ballard (writer of Michael Jackson's Man in The Mirror), and includes the unforgettable 'Unchained Melody'.

Director Eric Morris has assembled a remarkable team with Christine O'Grady joining us from New York for the Musical Staging/Choreography, Musical Director Kyle Picha, Stage and Lighting Design by Erik Paulson, to extraordinary and stunning stage effects by Miko Simmons (Projection Designer) and Jacob Davis (Sound Design). GHOST the Musical promises to be a magical night out that will send spirits soaring.

GHOST the Musical will run June 2 - September 23, 2017 with performances Wednesday 1:30p, Thursday - Saturday 7:30p, and Sunday 2:00p. Tickets $30 - $40.
