Westview Launches A. Shakespeare Ghostlight Lamp Benefiting Behind the Scenes

"Every time we build a theatre, we should gift a ghost light as a thank you to the people who bring that space to life."

Westview announces the release of the A. Shakespeare Ghostlight Lamp, a custom, made-to-order desktop lamp created to honor the legacy of Adam Shakespeare, a valued teammate and friend lost in 2022. Available through the company's online store, Westview Trading Post (westviewtradingpost.com), 100% of proceeds from each lamp sold will go directly to Behind the Scenes, a charity dedicated to supporting entertainment technology professionals in times of need.

The company says, "Serving as a project manager at Westview, Shakespeare had a simple, generous idea: every time we build a theatre, we should gift a ghost light as a thank you to the people who bring that space to life. We didn't get to make it happen while Adam was here, so we built it in his honor, in partnership with Behind the Scenes."

"A ghost light is more than a tradition," says Eric Bloom, president and founder of Westview. "It represents care not just for the space, but those who make it run. This project carries that meaning forward while supporting our broader industry community."

Developed in partnership with Behind the Scenes, the lamp serves as both a symbolic and practical contribution to the theatre world. Each made-to-order piece reflects Westview's craftsmanship and deep connection to the industry, while every purchase directly supports Behind the Scenes' efforts to assist professionals facing illness, injury, or unexpected hardship.

The A. Shakespeare Ghostlight Lamp is available now through Westview Trading Post.
