TheatreZone, Southwest Florida’s premier musical theater company, is bringing
romance and the supernatural to stage this summer with its production of Ghost: The
Musical, running June 5 through June 15 at the G&L Theatre located in North Naples.
Based on the 1990 Oscar-winning film starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and
Whoopi Goldberg, this tender and paranormal musical is a timeless story about the
power of love.
The musical is set in New York City featuring a powerful original score by Grammy
winner Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) and Glen Ballard. It tells the story of a couple, Molly,
a sculptor and pottery maker, and Sam who’s in finance on Wall Street. When Sam is
tragically murdered, he becomes trapped as a ghost between this world and the next,
determined to protect Molly from danger. With the help of Oda Mae Brown, a phony
storefront psychic who never expected to communicate with the beyond, Sam fights to
expose his murderer and save the woman he loves.
