by Jerri Shafer - Oct 10, 2024

An average American family acquires historic old Canterville Chase - complete with ghost! Sir Simon, the sporting spirit, succeeds in making life miserable. Then the Americans strike back. Pam and Wendy, daughters of the new owners, attack the poor ghost with cans of hairspray and deodorant! Sir Simon feels this is hardly fair, so he enlists the aid of some friends: Hester the Horrid, Lady Joan the Graveless, the Vampire Duchess, and other things that go bump in the night. Life is hectic and fantastically funny around Canterville Chase until the real solution to the problem of the galloping ghost is discovered. Performances run Oct. 10 & 17, @ 7:30pm, Oct. 11, 12, 18, & 19, @ 8:00pm, Oct.13, @ 2:00pm, 2024 at Abbey Theatre of Dublin, 5600 Post Rd. Dublin, Ohio 43017.
