The Eleventh Hour is a 1999 play by American composer Peter Dizozza.
In 1974, Dizozza created a ghost story, using as its outline a reordered track listing of the soundtrack recording of Lost Horizon by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. He gave it the generic title of The Eleventh Hour to refer to 11 a.m.
For La MaMa, E.T.C.'s Experiments 1999, Dizozza adapted his recollection of that story as a play, with subsequent readings at La Tea Theatre in the Clemente Soto Velez Cultural and Educational Center and at SideWalk Bar-Restaurant, all in New York City.
In 2002 John Seroff adapted the 1999 script and directed it in a production at The WAH Theater for the Performing Arts at the Williamsburg Art & Historical Center in Brooklyn, New York.
The Eleventh Hour takes place on an estate in Glen Cove, Long Island. It tells the story of two boys, Mark and Eric; Eric is a ghost who tempts the living Mark to join him. Unbeknownst to Mark's mother Sharon, her ex-husband has in effect sent them there to fumigate the property, since the ghost only appears to boys his same age.
