    “Ghost Light” Debuts at Provincetown Theater

    Ghost Light Provincetown
    October 26, 2020

    For Halloween, Provincetown Theater Debuts

    Original Virtual Production of “Ghost Light” on Oct 29th

    A real life haunting of the playhouse becomes the subject of Artistic Director David Drake’s telling of the “Lady of the Lobby”

    In celebration of Halloween – and the quest to continue making new online entertainment — on Thursday, October 29 at 7pm, the Provincetown Theater will premiere its first play created exclusively for virtual consumption with the haunting Hallow’s Eve tale Ghost Light: A Provincetown Ghost Story.

    Streaming for one-night-only on provincetowntheater.org, Ghost Light tells the real-life story of the abandoned painting of a beautiful young woman whose spirit haunts the playhouse at 238 Bradford Street in Provincetown, MA. As written and directed by David Drake, this 40-minute show finally reveals the legacy behind the mystery of the portrait recognizable to countless Outer Cape theatergoers as the “Lady of the Lobby” of the Provincetown Theater.

    Hosted on-camera in story-teller fashion by David Drake, Ghost Light also features performers Marco Calvani, Sandra Paredes, and Julia Salinger.

    With a suggested donation of $25 (though any donation will be greatly appreciated), Ghost Light goes “live” at 7pm on Thursday, October 29 on the Provincetown Theater’s virtual programming page on provincetowntheater.org.

    For updates, please follow the Provincetown Theater on Facebook and Instagram, or call 774.538.2211.
