About the Program

Inspired by the evocatively superstitious world of theater, Ghost Light Masquerade is a soul-stirring experience not to be missed.

​

Stir up the wicked and get lost among the eerie stages and dark corners as the dances of the damned are unearthed before you by the Spirits of the Ghost Light Masquerade. It's no secret the theater world is riddled with superstitions, but will you be able to figure them out before the Ghost Light goes out?

 

In an imaginative and immersive contemporary ballet performance presented by the renowned artists of The Rosin Box Project, Ghost Light Masquerade sets a traveling stage to create an engaging journey into the world of theater superstitions. Using chilling riddles about the lore that gives the theater world its magic and mysticism, and a series of vignette dances to drive the experience as a narrative, we move along through this haunting world that both Spirits and the Living call home. Inspired by the Ghost Light, a singular bulb that is to always be lit on an empty stage to ward off the mischievous ghosts that haunt all theaters alike, we explore some of the many theatrical rituals that performing artists remain tethered to, even in the afterlife. 

 

Guests enter this immersive performance only by way of a secret password, and once inside are given their own GLM Participant Mask to wear during the show. Worlds collide, and lines are blurred as Guests and Spirits occupy a new haunt in the depths of San Diego. Stay wrapped up in the magic, or choose to step out and enjoy a drink from the bar at any time.
