Realscape Productions will present the two-time Olivier Award-winning ‘Ghost Stories’ later this year.
‘Ghost Stories’ will be led by esteemed playwright and actor, Steve Rodgers (‘Savage River’, ‘Kenny’) in the role of Professor Philip Goodman. Joining him will be Jay Laga’aia (‘Star Wars’, ‘Play School’), actor-magician Darcy Brown (‘Peddling’, ‘Animal Farm’) and Green Room Award-winning Nick Simpson-Deeks (‘Winners And Losers’, ‘The Circuit’, ‘Falsettos’).
“‘Ghost Stories’ is thrilling and spine-tingling, and to immerse audiences in an emotional rollercoaster live on stage, you need an exceptionally talented cast,” Realscape Productions Producer Amy Johnson says. “Steve, Jay, Darcy and Nick each bring an exciting depth to their roles that we cannot wait to see live on stage.”
Richard Carroll (‘Godspell’, ‘Once’, ‘Calamity Jane’) will also join the ‘Ghost Stories’ team, as Associate Director.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled with the Australian cast and creative team for ‘Ghost Stories’,” Co-Writer and Director Andy Nyman says. “We can’t wait to see the dark fruits that they harvest!”
‘Ghost Stories’ is a fully sensory and electrifying encounter. It’s a twisted love letter to horror, and a supernatural, edge-of-your seat experience, as you enter a nightmarish world full of thrilling twists and turns, live on stage.
‘Ghost Stories’ plays Athenaeum Theatre (Melbourne) 16 September-22 October and Dunstan Playhouse (Adelaide) 7-31 December.
