Lucinda: Immersive theatre for us means using all the tools in our toolbox to create a new world the audience can interact with from the moment they enter a space. My iTunes is filled with WIP versions of shows sometimes they’re really different from the final product too!Ĭan you tell us a little bit more about immersive theatre? Kitty is our master sound-mixer, and the audio in our shows is SO important, so often they’ll create demos for us to listen to and riff off as the show progresses too.
We have a group chat that is constantly abuzz with progress updates and new ideas, so I think that supportive sharing experience kinda fuels us all to keep working too. We would often spend days in the park compiling song ideas and visual references, then divy up the work to be completed for the coming weeks. The Diet Ghosts are very referential, and between the four of us have an excellent library of pop culture to pull from. Kunterpunt: The start of a story can be literally anything - sometime’s it’s a one-liner that makes us laugh and snowballs into a full show, or sometimes it’s a full conceptual world someone’s been dreaming up that we all agree to explore together. What is your creative process in writing a new storyline? Wavelength’s Emma Bortolon-Vettor had a chance to ask a million questions to Lady Kunterpunt, Lucinda Miu, Aura Nova, and Kitty Creature about their work and the intersecting worlds around it. Simply put: The Diet Ghosts are fuckin’ amazing.
The Diet Ghosts would regularly transport a packed audience at The Beaver (RIP) beyond that tiny space into a spaceship, a summer camp, and anywhere else of their choosing. Everything is tied neatly into the genre of horror. They are the answer to Toronto’s West End drag scene, challenging both theatre and drag performance practices. Of course, you already know this if you’ve seen them. The Diet Ghosts are a crew of superhero storytellers who shock and inspire with every performance they create.
