Following a run at London’s Hampstead Theatre, the immersive horror show will take place at Audible’s Minetta Lane Theatre from the 29th September until the 15th November.
It has been announced that the New York premiere of A Ghost in Your Ear, an immersive horror show set inside an audiobook recording session gone terrifyingly wrong.
When an actor arrives late to a sound studio for a last-minute recording session, he is handed the script of a chilling ghost story to read. But as the engineer cues the recording and the evening wears on, the horrors slowly begin to escape the page to haunt the studio itself.
Written and directed by Jamie Armitage, A Ghost in Your Ear invites audiences to wearing headphones featuring groundbreaking binaural sound technology, this cutting-edge theatrical experience places everyone directly in a haunting world of sound. The sound design is by Tony-nominated duo Ben & Max Ringham (A Doll’s House, Prima Facie).
It has also been announced that the show will be recorded and released as an Audible Original at a later date, extending its reach to millions of Audible listeners around the world.
Jamie Armitage said, “I’ve loved horror theatre ever since I was terrified by The Woman In Black as a child. There is something so special about the power of a spine-tingling communal experience. So to be able to fuse my passion for horror with binaural audio technology in collaboration with the world-leading sound-designers Ben & Max Ringham was a real dream come true. We enjoyed the most special run of the show in London earlier this year, and I cannot wait to bring it over to New York to terrify the audiences there too. And given that the whole show is set in an audiobook recording studio, a collaboration with Audible felt like the most natural fit in the world. So whether you’re watching at the Minetta Lane or listening on Audible, I hope you’re ready for a fright!”
The creative team also includes: Anisha Fields (scenic and costume design), and Ben Jacobs (lighting design). The casting director is Taylor Williams. The production’s general management is by TT Partners. A Ghost in Your Earwas originally produced by HFH Productions and Playful Productions.
