this old haunt
the world premiere
“Four old friends meet at a cabin in the woods. They’ve grown up and apart, but here, they just might have the chance to mend the past... or sow new seeds apart. It’s a story about the cycles of life, and four women teetering at the precipice of a new season. Sometimes, all you can do is apply some black lipstick, light a candle (or 200), and summon the ghost of your past self.
this old haunt is a love letter to female friendship, childhood mentors, and making music together.”
