Ghost & Spice Productions Presents:
Edward Albee’s At Home at the Zoo- TRIANGLE PREMIERE

Darkly comic, fascinating, gut wrenching. This riveting full-length play pairs Edward Albee’s landmark 1958 play, The Zoo Story, with its recently penned prequel, Homelife. At Home at the Zoo examines a deliciously revealing and nuanced relationship between a husband and wife, and then catapults the husband into a life-changing encounter on the same day with a desperate outcast. It demonstrates why Edward Albee continues to be one of our greatest living dramatists.

The cast of At Home at the Zoo will feature company members Jeff Alguire, Rus Hames and Rachel Klem and will be co-directed by Rus Hames and Rachel Klem.

With its “small but mighty” approach to theatre, Ghost & Spice Productions puts special emphasis on high standards of acting and directing while minimizing production costs. Its rich storytelling brings audiences varied, engaging, and affordable professional theatre. Ghost & Spice Productions is a resident company of Common Ground Theatre.
