GHOSTLIGHT STAGES PLAYS, READINGS, AND CREATES NEW WORK IN THE AMERICAN THEATRE. We aim to be innovative, evocative, and modernize the world of telling stories on stage. At the same time, our namesake pays homage to our respect for tradition, and ALL THE artistS that WERE HERE before us. This is Ghostlight Company.

ghostlight HISTORY - A NAME.

"When I first heard the story of the ghost light, I was a teenager backstage in a theater. I actually asked if I should turn the light off. Someone then told me the story about why the light is left on. The superstition is that the light keeps the ghosts of the theater company while the actors are away. I heard it as the light being left on so the ghosts of actors can have a chance to perform on stage at night. I found it kind of romantic that these actors loved performing so much that they still wanted to be on stage, even in the afterlife."
