There will be three opportunities to attend the show. Opening night will be on Friday, November 1st at 7 PM. On Saturday, November 2nd, there will be a matinee at 2 PM, and a final performance at 7:30 PM. All performances will be held in the Camden High School Auditorium, and admission is free.

Emily Brontë: Teenage Ghost Hunter is a family-friendly horror comedy written by acclaimed scholastic playwright Don Zioldis. The story brings you to Northern England, where a reckless and frightening phantom is haunting the Roe Head School for Girls, sending the school - and its students - into disarray. If something isn’t done about the phantom soon, the school may have to close its doors.
Luckily, star student Emily Brontë, and sisters Anne and Charlotte are on the case, and as it turns out, the Roe Head School for Girls sits at the intersection of thrills and laughter, even with a phantom on the loose.
The trio use their unique abilities, and the help of a whimsical cast of characters, to investigate the abnormal happenings and hopefully, save their school. And when we say a whimsical cast of characters, we mean it. On the way to the truth, you’ll encounter an undead goose, a lovesick ghost, and a totally and completely normal talking meat pudding.
This riveting gothic-themed adventure is overflowing with humor, magic, and memorable moments that will resonate for years to come.
Whether you love classic English literature, a good spooky tale, a good laugh, or great theater, you’ll find it all at Camden High School this weekend! We’ll see you there!
