Where Do All the Ghosts Go? at Theater for the New City

Five ghosts who faced adversity in life will be homeless when the historic NYC building they inhabit is demolished. Sarah Bernhardt, baptized Catholic, faced antisemitism in the 19th century for her Jewish heritage; Elizabeth Keckley, former slave and companion of Mrs.Lincoln, was subjected to racism during travels with the widow; Buffalo Bill, Indian fighter in his youth, mourned the death of his great friend Chief Sitting Bull; Marcel Duchamp created a controversial genre of visual art using found objects; Alice Lansen, accused thief, was a self-proclaimed baroness. Together, they look to a living lesbian couple to help them find new homes.
