Ghost Light Stories
Las Vegas Little Theatre Las Vegas, Nevada October 10-31, 2020 Performed by Sabrina Close Directed by Gillen Brey |
Review: In the first monologue, “Olive Struts and Frets,” by Rex McGregor, Sabrina Close plays that theatre ghost you may have heard about; the reason theatres leave the single “ghost light” on the stage when the rest of the place is dark. Thus “Ghost Light Stories.” Directed by Gillen Brey, Close has delightful fun in deploring the lack of actors and crews, and audience during the pandemic. |
