Description
Welcome back Josh Hitchens and his performance of Ghost Stories by candlelight at Aston Mills Arts.
DESCRIPTION:
A disfigured man comes out of the bedroom closet when the lights go out. The things on the stairs. Something sinister that waits in the deep, dark woods. The consequences of using a Ouija board. In this chilling solo performance, Josh Hitchens relates these tales and more - and they're all true. A horrific and deeply moving piece about confronting the demons that haunt you in the dark. "Hitchens is an intimate, compelling storyteller, and these tales flow from pathos to laughter to chills under the direction of Ryan Walter...Whether or not you believe in ghost stories isn't important. Every well told story has a grain of truth, and you can find ones here that mean something to you...Being afraid demands a primal human bond that laughter, suspense, excitement, or even sadness never will. Maybe ghost stories aren't about fear at all, but about that underlying vulnerability and the magnetic connections that follow." - Alaina Johns, Broad Street Review.
After the performance, please feel free to talk with Josh about the show and any of your own ghost stories. Additionally, check out the Enchanted Nocturne exhibit that explores themes of the night, moon, stars, magic, skulls, and skeletons of all kinds.
Ticket includes show and light refreshments.
