Auditions for 13 Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey, a haunting new musical by Don Everett Garrett and Kevin Francis Finn, will be August 3 & 4 at 7 p.m.
In a small southern town at a house on Royal Street there is said to be a ghost. One Halloween night, a group of young people dare to find out and meet an eccentric old lady who opens up their world with her ghost stories. What they learn from this most unlikely of persons is a lesson about life and love. Are the ghosts that haunt us figments of our imaginations, or are they real? Only this treasured lady from Selma knows for sure. From Kathryn Tucker Windham’s beloved book comes this exciting stage adaptation.
