Michael Hollinger's GHOST-WRITER

Michael Hollingers Ghost-Writer —  April 5 through 30, 2019
Directed by Laura Giannarelli

NOTE! Playwright Hollinger to join director Giannarelli and her cast for after-show talk on April 14!

In this haunting love story set in New York in 1919, novelist Franklin Woolsey (Steve LaRocque) dies mid-sentence, but his typist, Myra (Carol Spring), continues to take dictation. Attacked by skeptics, the press, and Woolsey’s jealous widow (Stephanie Mumford), Myra sets out to prove she is more than just an artful forger. Is she trying to steal Woolsey’s legacy now that she cannot have his love, or might she truly possess a gift the world cant understand?

Ghost-Writer will be directed by Laura Giannarelli, a founding member of the highly acclaimed Washington Stage Guild. Previously at QTC, Laura directed Faith Healer and A Lesson from Aloes.

Prized by its patrons for its intimate stagings, QTC specializes in productions of naturalistic plays about the truth and beauty in everyday or “quotidian” life. This boutique theater caters to those who enjoy pondering–and discussing with friends after the show–the meaning of a great play. Located within walking distance of Bethesda’s renowned restaurant district, there are plenty of fine dining establishments at which to eat and drink before or after the play. On Saturdays and Sundays, parking is free in the public lot directly across from the Writer’s Center, where QTC is the resident theater company. QTC is easily accessible by car or Metro (red line to Bethesda stop).
