Ghost Quartet

Ghost Quartet is a song cycle about love, death and whiskey from Dave Malloy, the Tony-nominated creator of the Broadway hit “Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812.”  A camera breaks and four friends drink in an interwoven tale spanning seven centuries, with a murderous sister, a treehouse astronomer, a bear, a subway, and the ghost of Thelonious Monk.  The story draws from several fairy tales and "ghost stories", including Snow White and Rose Red, Edgar Allen Poe's Fall of the House of Usher, and One Thousand and One Nights (commonly known as Arabian Nights). There may also be some Legend of Zelda references you might recognize. Cast members present the story and music as a "concept album" and accompany themselves on a wide variety of instruments, including keyboard, ukulele, guitar, mandolin, banjo, autoharp, dulcimer and more percussion instruments than you can count.

​

This year, we have a new twist to for you.  Ghost Quartet 2026 will be a free outdoor event, "under the stars" so to speak. Seating will be on concrete step platforms, but you are also welcome to bring camp chairs or a blanket to sit on the grass. The show will be moved to the visitors center in case of rain.

​

We ask that you to let us know you're coming by signing up for a free ticket for everyone attending in your group. Parking in the adjacent lot will be free for anyone on our ticketing list.

​

However, we still need to raise funds to cover the cost of the production. We invite you to make a donation to the production here. Suggested donation to help us cover the costs of the production is $30. THANKS!
