Romeo & Juliet From A Whole New Angle | Ghostlight Sundance Interview

Ghostlight is the story of a family dealing with a terrible tragedy, and how they find a surprising path to healing in a community theater production of Romeo and Juliet. It’s charming and heart breaking in equal measure, and, fascinatingly, stars a real life family in the lead roles. We spoke to writer and co-director Kelly O'Sullivan, star Kieth Kupferer and co-director Alex Thompson about black box theater, working with an actual parent-teen dynamic on set every day and how to recontextualize Shakespeare.
