This rollicking new musical tells the story of five mismatched ghosts from various historical times who are stuck in limbo and doomed to haunt the theater in which, for various reasons, they died.  The ghosts include a flapper, who was shot on stage; two lovebirds, who are trapped in the '50's; a flamboyant drag queen; and a grouchy Shakespearean actor, who was a Civil War era draft dodger with a bad heart.  When a community theater group moves in and can not afford the royalties for their first show, the ghosts have to decide whether to haunt them out or help them.
