A Ghost in Your Ear Sets Off‑Broadway Run at Audible's Minetta Lane

Recording the binaural production for release as an Audible Original will extend the show beyond its limited live run.

Overview

  • Audible Theater announced on Tuesday, Aug. 4, 2026 that A Ghost in Your Ear will play at the Minetta Lane Theatre from Sept. 29 through Nov. 15.
  • The play is staged as a binaural 'headphone horror' that requires audience members to wear headphones to hear a 3D soundscape created by ear‑positioned microphones.
  • Jamie Armitage wrote and will direct the transfer, and the production names Tony‑recognized sound designers Ben and Max Ringham plus designers Anisha Fields and Ben Jacobs.
  • The production follows a sold‑out run at London’s Hampstead Theatre Downstairs and will be recorded during its New York engagement for later global release as an Audible Original.
  • Tickets are being sold through AudibleTheater.com and the project signals Audible’s push to fuse live immersive theatre with on‑demand audio, which could widen the show’s audience and revenue streams.
