Whisper House

A pop musical ghost story set in the shadow of World War II

Whisper House
a new musical
music & lyrics by Duncan Sheik
book & lyrics by Kyle Jarrow

It’s 1942 – at the height of World War II – and young Christopher is sent to live with an aunt he’s never met: Lilly, the reclusive keeper of a Maine light house.

On the rocky shore, Christopher is caught in the middle of a collection of strangers – and their intrigues: the patriotic Sheriff Charles; Lily’s Japanese handyman, Yasuhiro; and a pair of ghosts who may or may not be entirely real.

Who earns our loyalty – and why? And who among us is really in control of our destiny?

With lush melodies by acclaimed singer/songwriter Duncan Sheik and a timely message about the consequences of our fear of the “other,” Whisper House will be a theatrical experience you won’t soon forget.

Join us to kick off our 21st Anniversary season with this darkly mysterious coming-of-age tale where ghosts – real and imagined – walk among us.

ADMISSION INFO

Know Theatre strives to structure our ticket pricing in a way that makes theatre accessible to everyone who wants to see a show. And we’re switching to a new online box office that makes it easier than ever to manage tickets on your own time, outside of our normal box office hours.

We’re a 99 seat theatre with general admission seating. Our lobby bar opens one hour before show time so come have a drink with us! We open the doors to the theatre about ten minutes before curtain.

Here’s the breakdown of our ticket prices.

Mainstage Tickets: $25

Guarantee a reserved seat for most of our Mainstage Productions for just a couple bucks more than it would cost to see a 3D Imax Showing of Godzilla. Added bonus: our popcorn is cheaper!

Rush Tickets: $15

If you’re short on funds, arrive an hour before show time to get on our waiting list. If there’s a seat available 10 minutes before the show starts, we’ll sell you a ticket for $15. Just promise us that if you like the show, you’ll tell fifteen friends.

6 ticket Flex-pass: $110

For the frugally minded who want to plan ahead: you can get a flex pass that allows you to reserve seats for performances at the low-low price of $18.33 a ticket. Such deal! So much wow.

Membership: $250/year

Gets you access to every show produced by the Know (excluding Fringe) plus great benefits like priority seating, bar discounts, behind-the-scenes events, and more.
