A “ghost light” is a single bulb left burning on center stage whenever a theater is completely dark. Its practical use is for safety, to prevent accidents such as falling off the stage into the orchestra pit. Its other function is superstitious, to light the way for ghosts said to inhabit virtually every theater.
