The Ghosts of Celilo (suh-LIE-low) is a musical play based on true events that happened near Celilo Falls in the 1950s. Celilo was one of the world’s premiere fisheries and a cultural and spiritual center for native people before it was inundated by the Dalles Dam in 1957.

This ground-breaking production weaves a bittersweet love story within a mystery and features a haunting score of Native American music and traditional musical theatre songs. The Ghosts of Celilo is a collaborative dramatic production developed, written, and composed during the last 10 years by Marv Ross, Thomas Morning Owl (Umatilla), Chenoa Egawa (Lummi), Arlie Neshakhi (Navajo), and Tom Hampson.
