ACAB | REP ANY | DEATHLY DRAMATICS

What: Spectral Shakespeare in the Park
Who: Performed by a theatrical troupe of ghosts for the general public. Invited by Barnaby Wye.
Cost: No, but living guests are invited to bring flowers or an offering of moldy food for the ghost afterparty, and some dead guests have brought along impressively exotic spirit animals with them as part of a touring menagerie.
Where: Padmore Park.
Why: To celebrate Barnaby Wye's 294th deathday, bitches. Naturally we do not care if there are local murders going on. Let's see a tragedy!
When: Sunday 13th November, after dark.

The famed ghostly theatrical troupe, the Phantasmagoricals, is visiting Hogsmeade to put on a special spectre spectacular of "The Scottish Play", or Macbeth. Rows of benches and "standing" spaces have been arranged (for the living and the dead respectively) around the open air performance area. The park will be lit by the usual orbs and some blue-flame fires dotted around for eerie effect – but if you're alive, better wrap up warm because it'll be cold, the ghosts do not give two fucks about the temperature. The theatre troupe primarily consists of undead players who died violently between 1300-1800 and their mishmash of appearances reflects this. At least a few of them were sentenced criminals. Acting skills vary. There is not much of a set, per se, but some of the more powerful ghosts will manipulate the lake and the air to create a more stormy atmosphere, the apparitions are particularly effective, and the witches are actually played by a trio of hags.

Also featuring a guest star turn (if he does say so himself) of Barnaby as Banquo. And, you know, Banquo's ghost.

After the play, the ghostly feasting and frivolities will carry on throughout the night. Livings are welcome to stay as late as they like, but there will be a lot of rotting food about.

The touring ghost menagerie of dead creatures all freely roaming the park will be around all day beforehand (and possibly also in following days, depending on how long it takes to round all the animals back up again).
