Campo Maldito

Picture
By Bennett Fisher
Directed by Jesca Prudencio
Featuring Luis Vega* & Walker Hare

July 28 - August 13, 2016
People of Interest
Exit Theater, San Francisco


Angry ghosts are disrupting business at a tech startup in the Tenderloin district of San Francisco. When the young CEO hires a Santeria priest to purify the office, he gets more than he bargained for. A darkly comic fable about the cost of gentrification and the price you pay when you piss off the dead.

Praise for Campo Maldito
​

"It’s hard to weave contemporary social issues into truly theatrical storytelling, but [People of Interest], has done that beautifully with “Campo Maldito,” a comic ghost story with a conscience. Written by Bennett Fisher and directed by Jesca Prudencio, it’s set in the gentrifying Tenderloin district of San Francisco, where a young white tech entrepreneur (Walker Hare, excellent) calls on a Latino Santeria priest (Luis Vega, ditto) to rid his office of a spirit."  -  The New York Times

"Enthralling" - San Francisco Examiner

"A 
seriously spooky ghost story about gentrification and addiction... Creepy and compelling." - KQED
