The reviews are in for Ghost Quartet, which opened October 31 at the newly restored Boulevard Theatre in London’s SoHo.

Dave Malloy’s song-cycle stars Carly Bawden, Niccolò Curradi, Maimuna Memon, and Zubin Varla, with Bill Buckhurst serving as director.

Composer Malloy is best known for his work creating the Tony-nominated book, music, and orchestrations to Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812. His Octet was recently seen Off-Broadway, and he and The Great Comet director Rachel Chavkin reunite later this year with the world premiere of their Moby-Dick at the American Repertory Theater.
