Kaidan+

A collection of global ghost stories

Just in time for Halloween, join the Department of Theatre & Dance for an evening of seven spine-tingling ghost stories from around the world. Inspired by the legendary Japanese Kabuki play, "Kaidan+: Something Strange and Spectral" features a contemporary update of this chilling tale of revenge, and also journeys to a sinister boarding school in Africa, a desolate riverbank in Latin America, an otherworldly battlefield in Europe, a haunted bridge in Australia, the bleak expanse of the South Pole, and the menacing wilds of Colorado. Bring a friend—you won’t want to watch this alone!

Cecilia J. Pang directs a cast of CU Boulder Department of Theatre & Dance's talented student performers in the elegant University Theatre.

It’s in this spirit (pun intended) that CU Boulder Associate Professor of Theatre Cecilia J. Pang conceived the Department of Theatre & Dance’s Halloween event 'Kaidan+: Something Strange and Spectral,' an evening of seven chilling ghost stories from around the world."
