Join us for a virtual discussion of Ghostlight, a tender drama about a grieving construction worker who finds healing through a local theater’s Romeo and Juliet, as family tensions resurface.
In this tender drama, a grieving construction worker named Dan (Keith Kupferer) stumbles into a local theater’s production of Romeo and Juliet, where he’s cast opposite a spirited teacher (Tara Mallen) and slowly finds solace in performance. As rehearsals intensify, tensions at home with his wife (Katherine Mallen Kupferer) and daughter (Hanna Dworkin) resurface, mirroring the tragic arc of the play. (from Kanopy)
