Too Many Ghosts
by Fayette County Community Theatre (FCCT)

Oct. 30 - Oct. 31
Friday-Sunday

Jo Crenshaw dreams of turning the abandoned house she inherited in Salem, Massachusetts, into a successful bed and breakfast.  But that could be a problem when she and her teenage daughter discover the place is home to five rambunctious ghosts.  And none of the spirits are particularly keen on sharing it with an endless parade of guests. 

With the forecast looking like a little cooler weather might be coming our way, we are excited to see the fall season might be right around the corner...and we all know that that season includes Halloween. FCCT has a few events to celebrate the spooky holiday, and the first to promote is "Too Many Ghosts" by Todd Wallinger.
 
This family friendly play features more than 20 new and returning community actors.
