"With every wish, there comes a curse," Bruce Springsteen.
GHOSTED, a "mostly true" story, is about my reconciliation with past ghosts, reclaiming an authentic self, and finding empowerment through resiliency. I share my memories of meeting my soul mate while working in a hotel. The relationship ends tragically and abruptly, and, with the help of a few ghosts, my character is able to recover from loss and shame to create a life with a fulfilling third act.
1 actor, 10 characters tell the story, 38 years in the making.
Here’s what audiences have to say about GHOSTED.
GHOSTED, had its World Premiere at United Solo in NYC in April 2024 and completed a run at the Philadelphia Fringe Festival in September 2024. The United Solo Festival in New York City, (https://unitedsolo.org/), is the biggest solo festival in the world, and brings together some of the most talented solo performers from around the world.
The ALLENTOWN CONNECTION: The story takes place at The Americus Hotel in Allentown, PA, and GHOSTED and was performed at The Civic Theatre’s, Theatre514, 527 N 19th Street, Allentown, before moving to the Binge Fringe Festival at the Santa Monica Playhouse and at The Dickens Theatre in Ocean View DE in 2025. A hip injury sidelined Ms. Walker and her show at the Harrisburg Fringe had to be cancelled. Following her appearance in Pittsburgh Fringe Festival in March of this year, GHOSTED moves the Atlanta Fringe Festival, other performances are in negotiations.
Review from the New York Premiere:
I loved this play and what a gorgeous performance by this warm, wise, sexy woman. Engaging everyone, connecting, mesmerizing and holding the audience in the palm of her hand while she unwound this sad and funny, tragic and inspiring tale. I really hope you get the chance to see Celeste Walker’s “Ghosted.” By Samantha Simmonds-Ronceros -[NoHo Arts District, CA] – A NoHo Arts theatre review
Review from the Allentown, Civic Theatre Production:
Her show is a tour de force as she brings many facets of her gem of a life to bear for scrutiny by the viewer. The result is a polished stone of a story representing low points, struggle, acceptance, accomplishment and acclaim. Walker’s performance is in turns hard-bitten, gritty, angry, sometimes profane. By Douglas Graves Play Reviews Lehigh Valley Stage

As an Actor
Acting is my greatest joy. It is my place of passion and liberation. The great acting teacher Sanford Meisner said, “Acting is living truthfully in imaginary circumstances.”
I do not lose myself in the characters I play, but rather allow them to live through me. I give them a voice. I tell their stories. Whether I am playing Dorothy Parker, Maria Callas, or a character from the imagination of the playwright, I look for their truth, their struggle, their humanity, and partner that with the “magic if.” What would I do if…
I was trained as a “Method” actor. However, I prefer my mentor, Sam Schact ‘s process. I use whatever it takes to tell the story. My job is to lead the audience on a journey through the world of the character.
Solo performance is both terrifying and liberating. GHOSTED is my third solo show, the second that I’ve written and performed. I have choosen solo performing because, I have stories of my own and I have a lot to say.
My mission is to bring cinematic quality performances that move and inspire audiences. With years of experience and a passion for storytelling, I'm here to deliver compelling and unforgettable performances that will stay with you long after the curtain falls.
