“Ghost/Writer”

By Dane Figueroa Edidi

Directed by Danielle A. Drakes

WORLD PREMIERE February 09 – 26, 2023

Family secrets spanning decades unravel as history and fiction collide. In 1920 just outside of Tulsa, Patrick, an Irish immigrant, seeks out the services of Ms. Ruby, a mysterious Black woman from Baltimore, known to help exorcise ghosts from her clients, but the price she is asking may be too high. Meanwhile, in 2019, Charles Ross hires infamous ghost writer Rebecca Warren to help him through his writer's block, but what she invokes could be his salvation or undoing. Edidi's new play examines the intersections of race and gender inviting us to explore the role of love, justice and joy in a world where the ghosts of the past have yet to be laid to rest.

“Ghost/Writer is filled with passages that stir an explosion of recognition instilled by a writer who can pack volumes of truth into a single line.”
