What is ghost quartet? Yes, I know I can google it but I'm asking because I love hearing people explain things they like.

a song cycle / cabaret style musical about a woman who wants to get back at her lover for falling in love with her sister and splinters her soul into four main timelines (snow-white and rose-red, the arabian nights, a new york city train platform, and the fall of the house of usher) to enact revenge on them in every iteration of their lives. it's told completely out of order and the four performers play four-to-six characters each. the album's bandcamp page describes the influences thusly:

there is an official proshot of the original cast up on youtube here

I will admit the pitch sounds confusing as hell but I went into the proshot with no context and got along with it pretty well my first time through? if you know natasha, pierre, and the great comet of 1812, it's by the same composer who wrote that, and features some overlapping cast members.

for the low low time investment of about 90 minutes, you, too, can make posts that people mistake for being about steven universe because they involve characters called pearl and rose.

Girls will see narrative foils who hate each other but can never be separated and be like "they should kiss"
