“The playwright Desi Moreno-Penson belongs to a new
generation of theater artists reared on a diet of vampires, zombies and charming
serial killers. Call this movement the Theater of Blood, after the
Vincent Price movie about a Shakespearean actor who kills critics, after
torturing them with a hammy monologue.”
Jason Zinoman, The New York Times
“If you attend GHOST LIGHT you should be looking for “a little bit of
strange,” like the play's two main characters—luckily, neither you nor they get
the expected, making way for a tantalizing, utterly absorbing hour…the
relationship of Brian and Natalie is a layered, unnerving and accomplished
conflict of outlooks, psychological profiles and sexual pull.”
Michael Narkunski, New York Press
“GHOST LIGHT,
a cozy little thriller by Desi Moreno-Penson….
GHOST LIGHT does
achieve genuine spookiness…”
