Coming March 20, 2025.
A haunted song cycle about love, death, and whisky, Crow’s Theatre’s smash-hit of Dave Malloy’s GHOST QUARTET returns for a special digital Halloween engagement. Four friends drink, tell stories, and span seven centuries in this surreal, chamber musical of murder ballads, doo-wop, jazz noise, and a purgatorial intermezzo.

With director Marie Farsi, who won the Dora Award for Outstanding Direction, Musical Theatre Division, for Ghost Quartet, 2019 and lighting design by Patrick Lavender, whose work on Ghost Quartet won Outstanding Achievement in Design, Musical Theatre Division in 2019.
Music, Lyrics, and Text by Dave Malloy, the Tony-nominated composer and creator of Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812. Ghost Quartet began its life at Brooklyn’s storied Bushwick Starr, and went on to be performed at New York’s McKittrick Hotel, earning a New York Times Critic’s Pick, 2 before taking the Edinburgh Fringe by storm in 2016. The 2019 Crow’s Theatre / Eclipse Theatre Company production at Streetcar Crowsnest was the show’s Canadian premiere.
