Stabbing The Ghost
Presented by: Safari Street Creative
Feb 27 - Mar 3
Theatre
Origin: SA • World Premiere
In an empty newspaper office, two jaded journalists bump into each other after hours to finish their latest articles. They know they really should care about them, but they really just don't care about anything - unless someone rewrites their work...
A dark comedy about insufferable people, 'Stabbing The Ghost' peeks at what's behind the headlines in the searing fourth play by Safari Street Creative.
