Ghostlight

By: Michael R. Duran

Directed By: Missy Moore

A ghost light is a single bulb left burning whenever a theater is dark. Some argue that its function is to chase away mischievous spirits; others insist it lights the way for the ghosts that are said to inhabit virtually every theater. So, it’s no surprise that on occasion theaters would be a conduit for communication between this world and the next. 

Multi-talented scenic designer and playwright Michael R. Duran has penned six frightful ghost stories, all based on experiences he’s had in theaters in Colorado, including the Bonfils Memorial Theatre, Loretto Heights College, and The Steamboat Depot Arts Center. 

This event takes place throughout Thunder River Theatre Company and is ADA-compliant.

DRIVEN BY A PASSION TO EXPLORE AND ILLUMINATE THE HUMAN CONDITION

For over two decades Thunder River Theatre Company (TRTC) has staged works ranging from the most beloved theatre classics to the most current and cutting-edge playwrights. We seek to elucidate the unspeakable, to reimagine the familiar, and to awaken the ancient bond between storyteller and tribe, actor and audience.

INSPIRED BY THE WELL-ESTABLISHED MODEL OF RESIDENT THEATRE COMPANIES

In 2005, TRTC opened its doors in downtown Carbondale, Colorado. More than twenty years and 65 productions since the organization’s founding, TRTC continues to meet its mission of offering professional-quality theatre productions and education, as well as a host of expanded programs ranging from comedy improv to musical cabaret to development of new work.
