WHISPER HOUSE | The Other Palace
Production and Marketing Associate
A dark and thrilling musical ghost story.
From the Tony Award-winning composer of Spring Awakening and American Psycho, Duncan Sheik and book writer of SpongeBob SquarePants, Kyle Jarrow.
An eerie lighthouse stands on the remote East Coast of America at the height of World War II. When Christopher’s father’s plane is shot down, he is sent to live there with an Aunt he has never met and her mysterious Japanese housekeeper. Soon, he begins to hear strange music seeping through the walls. Is his imagination getting the better of him, or are the ghosts warning of real danger? Soon the whispers become something louder…
Whisper House combines a thrillingly original rock score with an unforgettable tale about learning to embrace the unknown.
