SUMMERLAND is an historical fiction mystery based on real life spirit photographer William H. Mumler (1832-1884). 

In 1869, 150 years ago, many, including Mary Todd Lincoln, flocked to his studio to get their pictures taken just to see who also showed up in the photo - that is - who was DEAD who appeared as a ghost in the photo. 

While a detective is keen to prove he’s a fraud, Mumler’s wife, a clairvoyant, is digging into the detective’s past.  

New Jersey Premiere - This is only the third production of this riveting play; Summerland premiered at the Cincinnati Playhouse in 2017.
