Developed with the generous support of the Ontario Arts Council, The Ghost Project
presents a series of monologues by solo performer Karie Richards, drawing from
verbatim interviews to question the existence of departed souls in our midst. Offering
sympathetic portraits of eleven different people who share their sometimes unsettling,
frequently funny, often poignant, yet always mysterious, experiences, this debut
production invites the audience into an ever-expanding and engaging conversation
about life, and what may come after. Wondrous and searching, The Ghost Project asks,
“When a person dies does it really mean they no longer exist?” “I still have chills... a
wonderful verbatim work!” —audience member, staged reading for Day of the Dead in
Tepoztlan, Mexico. “...nothing short of stupendous.” Five-star review in the Winnipeg
Free Press for Karie Richards’ previous Fringe show, Birdy.
