They want the smoke? Give it to ‘em. 🩸 Coming this Fall: the World Premiere of THE AARON PLAY, co-produced by Coin & Ghost and Independent Shakespeare Co! 🩸 THE AARON PLAY picks up right where Shakespeare’s TITUS ANDRONICUS left off: with its self-proclaimed villain, Aaron the Moor, buried up to his chest in earth, sentenced to death by starvation. Watched by two Roman guards and visited by spirits of the wrongéd dead, Aaron plots to escape and reunite with his infant son. Tragic, darkly funny, and terrifyingly relevant, this fresh riff on Shakespeare’s bloodiest play explores justice vs. vengeance, cycles of violence, and the cost of building an empire. 🩸 Written by Zachary Bones (@art_on_my_sleeve) Directed by Carly DW Bones (@thespomancer) Conceived and Developed by the Bones Co-Produced by @coinandghost and @indieshakes

In case ya didn’t see — @ladygaga’s opening look for Coachella was designed by @athenalawton and the House of Athena!!! 📌📌📌 Athena is a dear friend of the Ghost, having designed our costumes for MAMA MAMA and FORTUNATE SON. We are so, so extraordinarily proud of them (but not at all surprised, because this Athena/Gaga team-up seems BLATANTLY OBVIOUS in hindsight). Way to go, ya badass 😘

Mom & Dad are another year older. Still fine as hell, though. HAPPY BIRTHDAY(S) to our Associate Artistic Director, @queen.elisa.jasmine (today) and our Artistic Director, @reevecreates (tomorrow)! Many happy returns. Thanks for all the weird art.
