Altman Rentals Behind the Scenes Ghostlight
Altman Rentals, Inc. exclusively offers a UL-Listed
Ghostlight. All profits for the sale of the Ghostlight
will go to support the Behind the Scenes charity. The
Behind the Scenes Charity is an initiative of the ESTA
Foundation.
Behind the Scenes provides financial support to entertainment technology professionals when they are
ill or injured. With this initiative, our industry can
make sure our colleagues are cared for when tragedy
strikes. The traditional Ghostlight was used as the
logo for the Behind the Scenes charity and supports
it’s tagline of ‘Don’t leave your colleagues in the
dark.’
A Ghostlight serves both a practical and a
traditional role in theatre. On the practical side, a
Ghostlight is the single light left burning onstage
when the theatre is closed so that anyone coming
into the theatre can see the set, the edge of the
stage, or any potential obstacles or dangers.
On the traditional side, theatre superstitions vary, but
most say that the Ghostlight keeps the good ghosts
of past productions in the theatre. If a
theatre was to be completely dark, these beneficial
ghosts would leave the space. Another version is that
if the ghost thinks the theatre has been abandoned
they would cause accidents to happen on the stage.
Whatever your belief, the Behind the Scenes
Ghostlight is a symbol of our willingness to help out
our colleagues, who for years have not had a safety
net of any kind.
Altman Rentals is happy to be able to offer the
Behind the Scenes Ghostlight, it is just one way we
can all help make a contribution and ‘not leave our
colleagues in the dark.’
