The Ghost and Mrs. Muir

The look of love Who else (besides Dorian Gray) loves looking at paintings? 🖼️

@penelopelambton Watch this space! We love the film too and the story is perfect for a musical production.

@GhostandMuir I love the film. When is the musical happening?

"I have known all these years that there is a lush and sweeping musical lurking in the pages of the novel..." After 26 years and equipped with stage rights, #TheGhostandMrsMuir will be coming to the stage as a musical by Director Kenneth Hoyt 👻

Spot the Seaman👀 A still from the 1947 film The Ghost and Mrs Muir

The film rights to The Ghost and Mrs Muir were quickly acquired by 20th Century Fox. It was a multiple decade long pursuit to get the stage rights to this fantastic novel #followyourdreams

This #internationalmensday we want to tip our hats to Hollywood's finest: Joseph L. Mankiewicz

This #Filmoftheday 🙌 We love that the film adaptation is so closely based on the novel - this is essential to our stage adaptation too! #theatre

The original novel behind our production continues far beyond what is presented in the film. It is lovely storytelling, not well known, and will have a #solid place in our stage adaptation! #theatre #theghostandmrsmuir #stageadaptation

Irish author Josephine Leslie wrote under 'R.A. Dick', taking the initials from her sea captain father, Robert Abercromby. And here she is! #femalewriters #womenwriters #femalevoices

Director Kenneth Hoyt: "I have never understood the idea of an 'old fashioned' romance. Romance doesn't go out of style." That's why The Ghost and Mrs Muir works as a new musical - it's #timeless

@ManicManiaFi @LondonTheatre1 It's a brilliant story and has so many natural hooks as a musical

@GhostandMuir @LondonTheatre1 Omf this film is amazing remember watching a lot as a kid.

The acclaimed romantic-fantasy novel The Ghost and Mrs. Muir by R.A Dick will be adapted for the stage as a new musical. Under the direction of Kenneth Hoyt this exciting project comes to fruition after a 26- year struggle to acquire the stage rights to the much beloved novel.
