Ghost Light
John Gaspard, who’s directed seven shows here, produced and directed Ghost Light, an independent movie about the adventures of a company performing The Importance of Being Earnest in the arena. Complete with requisite theatre ghost. The feature film was shot almost entirely in our building, including areas the public never sees, and you may recognize a number of faces in the cast from previous TRP productions. When prompted, enter the password “Ghost Light”. (1 hour, 36 minutes)
