The Eugene, OR-based Register-Guard newspaper published an excellent piece on Ghost Light, the play that Cal Shakes Artistic Director Jonathan Moscone will direct at Ashland’s Oregon Shakespeare Festival this summer, and in January 2012 at Berkeley Rep. The original work, written by Berkeley Rep Artistic Director Tony Taccone in collaboration with Moscone, is part of OSF’s American Revolutions cycle, and “tells the story of a young man growing up in the emotional and political shadow of the double murder,” writes the Register-Guard, and the adult man, “a Bay Area theater director, struggling to stage a production of Hamlet—and struggling, particularly, with the character of Hamlet’s dead father’s ghost.”
