About the Play:

Olive Thomas was a turn of the century artist's model, Ziegfeld Girl, and silent film star who died tragically in Paris France in 1920 at age 25. Her ghost has allegedly been haunting the New Amsterdam Theatre for the past 103 years. The story begins on the 100th anniversary of her death when her ghost invites a spectral audience to celebrate her life with her.
