Ghostlight

Dan Mueller is an introverted construction worker whose family has not yet recovered from the death of their teenage son. His daughter, Daisy, is rebellious, and often acts out at school.  By coincidence, Dan is brought into a reading of Romeo and Juliet at a local theatre. With stress mounting at work, communication problems at home, and an approaching legal case, Dan decides to continue with the show as an escape. Given his lack of acting experience, Dan is used to opening himself up to strangers.  Due to recent personal struggles, discovering the fates of Romeo and Juliet troubles him deeply.  Once Daisy joins the play as well, Dan sees it as an opportunity to bond with his child, and at least partially understand his late son’s emotional challenges.
