Both award-winning actors, Iain Glen and Lesley Sharp are equally well known for their film and television work as for their highly-praised stage work.

Jessica Raine, newly graduated from RADA and seen in "Gethsemane" at the National Theatre, will play ‘Regine'. Malcolm Storry, a veteran of the West End and recently ‘Gandolf' in "The Lord Of The Rings" at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane and ‘Basilio' in "Life Is A Dream" at the Donmar, will play ‘Engstrand'.

"GHOSTS" will be designed by Stephen Brimson Lewis, with lighting by Oliver Fenwick, and sound & music by Richard Hammarton. With associate direction by Amelia Sears, Iain Glen will direct.

"GHOSTS" will be co-presented in the West End by Thelma Holt and Nica Burns.
